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 contemplative, abstract puzzle game where players experiment with key combinations to map out an alternate reality.

What players say

Players call it a relaxing, thought-provoking puzzle game that leans into philosophical themes rather than frustration. The story is mostly visual and can get confusing, and some say the mechanics are obscure by design. A minority criticizes the tiny character model and a plot that does not make clear sense.
