The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A relaxing but surprisingly addictive color-guessing puzzle game with simple graphics and a laid-back soundtrack that makes you want to keep experimenting.

What players say

Players call it more of a guessing game than a logic puzzle, relying on trial and error rather than deduction. Frustration grows in later levels, and some report bugs with prisms not splitting colors correctly. Time limits and a clunky UI add to the annoyance, though a few find it a cheap, fun time-killer.
