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 sitting in a quiet courtyard, calmly moving pieces across a board at your own thoughtful pace.

What players say

Players warn about a missing exit button and slow backgammon. Some hit freezes on first launch, but it worked afterward, a few praise VR support with Oculus Quest 2. Russian players report trouble launching games from the menu.
