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 calm, methodical, and intellectually absorbing experience of connecting nodes to manage resources and solve abstract problems.

What players say

Players describe it as an addictive idle game with a steep prestige system called the portal, where you restart from scratch. Some love the optimization loop, while others find the progression grindy and the lack of tutorials frustrating. A few note that a major update made the game slower and more monetized.
