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 poignant, hand-drawn journey through a blurred sand world where you piece together memories and face emotional challenges.

What players say

Players praise the unique sand-art visuals but are split on the rest. Many say the controls feel stiff, the game lacks a tutorial, and death resets progress to the prologue. Progress-blocking bugs and missing features like save functionality are frequently reported, though some note the developer is quick to fix issues.
