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 friendly but deceptively tricky puzzle game that starts simple but forces you to think cleverly under light pressure.

What players say

Players praise the creative twist on match-3, where each tile shape dictates its movement direction. The game offers 25 normal and 13 hard levels, plus 75 challenge puzzles that many find more rewarding. Some players report the main levels feel luck-dependent, while others split on the difficulty spike on hard mode. The jazzy music is widely liked, though one reviewer turned it off.
