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 hurried, self-aware meta-experience that feels like an accidental game hastily assembled for the sake of existence.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, cheap experience that blends idle clicking with absurd humor and minigames, often comparing it to There Is No Game. Many mention being surprised or jumpscared by developer Jonny Razer, and opinions split on whether the construction music is good.
