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 lighthearted, turn-based puzzle-action game where you methodically flip grid tiles to outmaneuver and destroy enemy drones.

What players say

Players praise the reactive puzzle gameplay and challenging but fair level design, with many noting the game evokes nostalgia for 2000s Flash games. The campaign is short at about 1-2 hours, but the endless mode, challenge mode, and built-in level editor add replay value. Some players find the controls occasionally unresponsive, leading to restarts, but this is a minor complaint.
