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 contemplative puzzle game of interlocking toroidal logic, where you explore biomes and solve block-and-gate challenges at a gentle, self-paced rhythm.

What players say

Players love the clever puzzle mechanics but are split on the game's value because the ending is not implemented and some puzzles feel tedious. While the early areas impress with creative twists on sokoban, later puzzles have difficulty spikes and require excessive walking. The lack of an Early Access tag bothers many.
