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 brain-teasing puzzle game where you reshape the world itself to outwit obstacles in a silent, contemplative grid-based environment.

What players say
Players praise the unique tessellation mechanic, switching between hex, square, and triangle grids mid-puzzle. The game went free-to-play in 2022, which many note was a good move. Reviews say it is challenging but not reliant on trial and error, with an open world layout reminiscent of Stephen's Sausage Roll. A few players found late puzzles unintuitive.
