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

It feels like a quiet, meditative word puzzle where you slowly combine letters to learn definitions while ambient music and sound effects keep you calm.

What players say

Players describe Relaxicon as a low-pressure word game with no time limit, where you drag letters to form words and learn definitions. Many appreciate the soothing music and atmosphere, but repeatedly note the dictionary is inconsistent, accepting some word forms while rejecting others.
