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 fast-paced, colorful match-3 puzzle game where you match gems for high scores and chain explosive bonuses in a lighthearted Aztec-themed adventure.

What players say

Players love the earlier games in the series but call this the weakest entry. They say the campaign is short, has no replay value, and feels unfinished, with a boring slot machine and no reshuffle tiles option. Some note it runs smoothly in high resolution.
