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 deceptively simple minimalist ball game that requires precise timing and aiming, where each mistake forces a restart.

What players say

Players are split on Snik. Some praise its challenging, minimalist reflex-testing concept, but many more criticize floaty controls, a brutal difficulty curve, and achievements that unlock without meeting requirements.
