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 calm, logic-driven puzzle game where you manipulate room structures in a twisty, safe, and atmospheric 2D world.

What players say
Players love the core mechanic of carrying and nesting rooms, calling it deeply creative. The game is consistently described as very difficult, especially without an undo button, which makes trial and error frustrating. Players are split on whether its difficulty is satisfying or punishing.
