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 serene yet eerie puzzle experience that challenges you to think while you explore delicate, atmospheric architectural landscapes.

What players say

Players praise the monochrome art style and calming atmosphere, but many criticize the controls, using the mouse to move and spacebar to drop feels unintuitive. The game is short, around 3-4 hours, with puzzles that range from simple to frustrating, and the slow walking speed is a common complaint.
