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 deceptively gentle puzzle-platformer that demands careful planning and tool management rather than fast reflexes.

What players say

Players say Toki Tori hides a tough, demanding puzzle game under a cute exterior, and many remark that later normal and all hard levels are unintuitive puzzles with only one solution. A few criticize the controls as clunky and compare it unfavorably to mobile games, and some note it locks bonus content behind joining the developer's Steam group.
