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 finish the 11 levels in under an hour, often within minutes. Many report that level 8 and the final four achievements are bugged and have remained unfixed since release. Reviews split on whether the simple challenge is fun or frustrating, with frequent complaints about poor physics and controls.
