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 gentle, methodical puzzle game where you color walls and find exits in cute pixel mazes with a chipper chiptune soundtrack.

What players say

Players solve puzzles by moving a cat through mazes to paint walls, with no color mixing to keep things simple. The difficulty ramps up quickly, especially in the final levels, and the game is short, around an hour. Some players find the color visibility confusing and the level restart animation too slow, which disrupts the flow.
