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

Building tiny toy towns feels like playing with blocks, a calm and cheerful sandbox with light physics puzzles and satisfying crashes.

What players say

Players describe Tinytopia as a light physics-based city builder that trades complexity for creativity. Many enjoy the short scenario structure and stacking mechanic but find manual building merging tedious. Economies swing wildly and the game feels abandoned after release.
