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

You tear virtual paper with click-and-drag precision, racing against a timer to cut through objective stickers while dodging distracting decoys that would set your sheet ablaze.

What players say

Players enjoy this paper-cutting game in short bursts, calling it addictive and charming with a surprising amount of content. The difficulty jumps after the first few levels, and there is a custom mode for more challenge, but some find the mouse tracking imprecise at speed.
