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.

What players say

Players describe Snowball as a charming and relaxing single-table pinball game with a cozy winter theme. The standout mechanic is growing your ball as it rolls through snow, and the table is large with many tunnels and secrets. Players agree it is best enjoyed in short bursts and recommend picking it up on sale.
