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 whimsical grid-based puzzle game where you play as a tapeworm night club owner, gently managing fleas and collecting blood with a retro, comic tone.

What players say

Players enjoy this NES-style puzzle game for its charming presentation and well-designed puzzles that introduce mechanics gradually. However, some find the controls confusing and note that later levels demand precise timing and reflexes, not just thoughtful puzzling.
