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, brain-tickling puzzle game where you quietly slide little critters along paths, solving increasingly clever routing challenges without any pressure.

What players say

Players praise Slidetracked for its unique movement mechanic where two connected balls must navigate a grid, a novel twist they hadn't seen before. Reviews note the difficulty ramps up around level 40-45, with some later puzzles being quite devious. The game is considered short, taking most players 2-6 hours to complete, but offers solid value at its price point.
