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 gentle, unhurried storytelling puzzle where you piece together a young man’s path to kingship through calm, isometric vignettes.

What players say

Players describe a relaxing puzzle game where you place blocks to guide a story. It is short with over 20 routes, but some find the puzzle mechanics too simple and the story variations repetitive. There is no tutorial.
