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 peaceful and meditative puzzle experience where linking matching pieces reveals hidden patterns to a backdrop of serene visuals and gentle music.

What players say

Players describe this as a calming, meditative puzzle game where you place and rotate colored tiles. The early hand-crafted worlds give way to procedurally generated levels, which some find frustrating and repetitive. There is a hint system, with an achievement for not using it.
