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 minimalist gamble where every click tightens the suspense between reward and catastrophic loss

What players say
Players call it exactly what it looks like: a game about pressing a button repeatedly. Some enjoy the flavor text that nods to other games, others see it as quick achievement fodder that can be finished in under an hour.
