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 clean, minimalist puzzle game that feels like a satisfying mental workout, gently pushing you to recognize shape-number relationships.

What players say

Players describe a clever math-adjacent sliding puzzle where shapes stand in for numbers. Most find it gently challenging for the first 80+ levels, then very hard near the end, with a few unsolvable stages. Several mention the white background strains the eyes, and one critic misses a way to mark solved tiles.
