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.

What players say

Players call it an intense but addictive reflex and memory game that strains the eyes and brain, with several saying they feel sick or see shapes after sessions. Most praise the smooth gameplay and low system requirements, though one player reports crashes that make it unplayable. Long-time demo players say the full release looks very different.
