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

playing feels like a low-stress, cartoony business simulation where you gradually build up an interstellar rug-trading operation with a cheerful, idle-paced loop.

What players say

Players are deeply split on this idle game. Many call it broken and unfinished, pointing to progression that dead-ends, prestige bonuses that don't carry over, and research gates they cannot pass. A smaller group enjoys the colorful art and active development, but even they admit the content is thin and the pacing is off.
