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, colorful city-builder where you thoughtfully place tiles and buildings to create lovely floating islands at your own pace.

What players say

Players call it a simpler grid-based take on Islanders and Dorfromantik. It is relaxing and fun for short sessions, but several note it becomes too easy once you understand the rules. A few complain about a missing undo button and unclear mechanics.
