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.

You methodically manipulate blocks and mechanisms to solve self-contained logic puzzles inside a robot's circuitry.

What players say

Players praise Tetrobot and Co. for its clever, well-balanced puzzles that steadily introduce new mechanics. The main challenge is collecting three hidden memory blocks per level, and the undo button makes experimentation painless. A minority report frequent crashes and an unreliable undo state.
