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 serene, atmospheric journey through a folding paper world with gentle puzzles and a haunting soundtrack.

What players say

Players say Tengami is a short, beautiful pop-up book adventure, but the slow walking speed divides them -- some find it meditative and others find it frustrating. Puzzles are simple for most and the game is often called relaxing.
