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 tricky mix of twisted puzzles and wordplay that teases your brain with unexpected answers and dark humor.

What players say

Players are split on this puzzle collection: some enjoy the brain teasers and find them fun if simple, while others call it overpriced and frustrating. Complaints focus on having to replay all previous puzzles after a failure, inconsistent puzzle logic, and a cheap browser-game look.
