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
You guide a simple robot through grid-based puzzles by building decision trees, feeling like a gentle teacher coaching an eager but limited learner through logic challenges.

What players say
Players praise the game as a solid way to learn simple AI programming, though opinions split on a key design choice: some find the lack of bot memory frustrating, while others enjoy the primitive-bot challenge. The controls can be fiddly but the undo button helps, and there are 72 levels.
