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 strategic survival city-builder where you manage a beaver colony through droughts and toxic seasons, balancing resource gathering and settlement expansion.

What players say
Players praise the unique water physics and vertical building, but split on longevity. Many find it relaxing and addicting at first, then say it becomes too easy and aimless once water is managed. Some call it a pure sandbox with no real goal, while others enjoy the chill pace.
