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 playful, self-aware walking simulator that feels like exploring a conversation about creative frustration through tiny, abstract games.

What players say
Players split on this meta collection of mini-games. Some praise its humor and emotional story, others call it a folder-clicking slog that is overpriced and bait-and-switch, with early buzz about pigeons leading nowhere. Heavy themes in the ending need a trigger warning.
