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 programming puzzler where you carefully craft instructions to guide a robot through a cold, solitary world.

What players say

Players praise the realistic coding language and satisfying puzzles, but many find the difficulty rises too steeply. The triangle-based movement disorients some, while others compare it favorably to other programming games like TIS-100.
