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 throwback puzzle game that feels like a chill, colorful arcade session with a gentle time pressure and retro visual vibes.

What players say

Players describe it as a straightforward color-matching puzzle game with no real puzzle element, more of a casual fidget toy. Some note the lack of a colorblind option and controls that need refinement, while others find it surprisingly engaging for short bursts. The game is free and minimalistic.
