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 laid-back, low-stakes clicker-like experience where you watch and care for tiny shrimp in a cozy aquarium.

What players say

Players are split on this free idle sim. Some find it charming and get a kick out of watching shrimp bounce at 1000x speed, others call it boring with barely any content. Bugs are a major complaint: shrimp vanish, saves break, and the sell and build modes glitch out, though one reviewer says the bugs are fixed.
