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 calm, solitary evening playing classic solitaire in a moody noir office with jazz and rain outside.

What players say

Players enjoy the noir detective atmosphere but are frustrated by persistent bugs, notably heart cards displaying as diamonds and cards falling through the table. The game is relaxing and cheap, but lacks basic features like restarting a hand or multiple card draw options, and some find its dark visuals hard to read as intended.
