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 relaxed yet fast-paced cooking sim where speed and upgrades drive steady progression through hundreds of bite-sized levels.

What players say

Players say this is a cozy, fast-paced time management game with hundreds of levels. Many compare it to Pixels Cafe. There are bugs, especially in the salad shop level where a cleaning tutorial can softlock progress. The UI feels dated, like a 2008 Big Fish game.
