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, minimalist physics puzzle where you carefully remove bars to keep balance, with a soothing visual and sound atmosphere.

What players say
Players say it is a very short physics puzzle game, often finished in an hour, with 50 levels each granting an achievement. Most find it relaxing but overly easy, with puzzles solved by process of elimination rather than ingenuity. The game is widely seen as cheap achievement fodder for Steam profiles.
