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 calm yet precise logic puzzle where you methodically guide fragments to complete shapes, softened by a melodic soundtrack but requiring careful moves to avoid setbacks.

What players say

Players describe a minimal puzzle game where you gather balls into a square. Many note the lack of an undo button and say difficulty jumps sharply near the end, making the last levels feel missing. The game is short, around two to six hours, and a few find the music repetitive.
