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 lighthearted puzzle game that feels like guiding cheerful little creatures through increasingly tricky obstacle courses with a focus on careful timing and block-moving.

What players say

Players compare it to a 3D Lemmings where you place blocks and stairs to guide helpless creatures. Most finish in under an hour and say 15€ is too much for the content. Some report a bug with missing sound, and placing blocks precisely can feel finicky.
