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 slow, thoughtful puzzle game where you carefully guide a growing snake through grid-based levels, avoiding self-collision.

What players say

Players describe it as a short puzzle game that mixes snake and sokoban mechanics. Many note it's simple and approachable, though some find the later levels frustrating, especially the timed last world. Opinions are split on its difficulty, with some calling it challenging and others saying it's easy. A recurring complaint is the lack of an undo button.
