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 cheeky, fast-paced solitaire variant that feels like a playful rebellion against the quiet boredom of classic card games, with a wink to 80s kitsch.

What players say

Players describe Radical Solitaire as a chaotic, anxiety-inducing twist on classic solitaire that adds a breakout minigame when you get stuck. The intentionally garish CGA-style graphics divide opinion, and some warn about flashing lights for sensitive players.
