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 gentle, strategic loop of watching small creatures mine and collect shiny shards while you optimize ever-growing upgrades.

What players say
Players praise its strategic depth, where prestige talent choices matter and you cannot just blindly buy upgrades. Many call it a short but polished incremental with a clear endpoint, though some find the late game grindy or needing idle time. The pixel art and chiptune classical music are widely liked.
