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 slow, meditative loop of collecting, sorting, and upgrading as you build a junkyard empire from scratch.

What players say

Players praise the relaxed start-from-nothing loop but agree the game runs out of things to do in roughly 5 to 11 hours. The map is small, quests end quickly, and there have been no updates since March 2025, so players recommend buying on sale.
