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, lighthearted horse-care simulator where you breed magical horses, craft items, and manage a colorful fantasy farm at a relaxed pace.

What players say

Players largely agree this is a terrible game, often bought as a gag gift. Many complain about the complete lack of a tutorial and confusing gameplay, with one calling it a boring grind of training horses in tiers. Some find it amusing for streaming or as a joke, but most say it is not worth the time or money.
