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 hands-on, interactive tutorial that feels like guided exploration, where adjusting parameters and observing real-time visualizations makes abstract math and AI concepts feel concrete and understandable.

What players say

Players call it a standout AI primer, more intuitive than courses or books, though it is barely a game. Many hit broken video playback or launch stalls, and the English subtitles players asked for never came. Long-time players note the team behind it disappeared, leaving the game dependent on fan-made fixes.
