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 calm, methodical puzzle about arranging art fragments, where piecing together paintings feels like quietly collaborating with an unseen artist.

What players say

Players call this a calm, short puzzle game where you rotate segments of a painting to complete it. It takes under two hours to finish, and the ability to import your own images is praised as fun for replay.
