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.

A gentle, calming experience of tending to a floating bird sanctuary at your own pace.

What players say

Players are split. Many call out undisclosed AI-generated art and missing developer responses to bugs, including a broken trading feature and several achievements that do not unlock. Those who enjoy it describe a peaceful idle game with hundreds of real bird species to collect, though some find the painted color variants ugly and the gameplay repetitive.
