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.

What players say

Players enjoy this short puzzle game that masquerades as a cozy experience but is actually about logic gates. It takes about 20-30 minutes to finish, with easy achievements and a relaxing vibe. Some wish for more levels and native Linux support.
