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 chaotic, cartoonish physics-based score-chaser where you frantically fix pipes while dodging toilet hazards and creating silly poo paintings.

What players say

Players love the goofy premise and find the game genuinely fun for short sessions, often using it to demo VR to newcomers. The simple arcade gameplay gets frantic and provides a decent workout, though some find grabbing the right item tricky and a few report bugs or feel the game was abandoned.
