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 lighthearted but frantic sorting puzzle where you scramble to manage malfunctioning machines and spot imposters under time pressure.

What players say

Players say it is a simple but challenging puzzle game about guiding penguins through conveyor belts and machinery. It has 100 levels, a level editor, and Steam Workshop support. Some levels require precise mouse timing and cause many restarts.
