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 laid-back but competitive puzzle game where you slowly build skills to overwhelm opponents in short, strategic matches.

What players say

Players enjoy Minesweeper turned into a competitive board game where you dig for axes and traps instead of just flags, but some feel victory depends too much on luck rather than skill. The game was delisted, so new players can no longer buy it, though those who own it can still play.
