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 methodical and minimalist puzzle game where you solve logic challenges in a sterile, futuristic correctional facility.

What players say

Players praise the clean visuals and relaxing music, but note the game is short with 38 levels and a bare-minimum story. The puzzles involve directing lasers and mixing colors, though some find extra cubes give unintended alternate solutions. There are known performance issues and colorblind-unfriendly laser colors, and the developer added an option to play the original 2018 version.
