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 frantic, cartoonish VR puzzle game where you build pipe mazes with magnetism while panicking as water fills the room.

What players say

Players praise the creative use of roomscale VR, the rising water mechanic, and the clean art style. The randomly generated puzzles and limited number of maps mean replayability comes from the four modes, but attaching pipes can be fiddly and the game demands actual physical movement.
