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 click-based store simulator that can be either a laid-back, colorful management experience or a tense, unforgiving battle against a gang.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple shop management simulator that becomes repetitive but is fine for relaxing in the background. The game features 4 stores, takes about 15 years of in-game time to complete, and includes events like lazy workers and thieves.
