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 thoughtful puzzle game where you swap objects and recruit dinosaur companions to progress through a prehistoric timeline toward extinction.

What players say

Players describe this as a free pixel-art sokoban with dinosaurs, not a narrative adventure. It offers unlimited undo and a panel-switching puzzle layer. Some call it difficult, and a few note bugs.
