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.

What players say

Players enjoy this as a fast, arcade-style video poker with hot and cold streaks that make it more engaging than standard poker. Some reports of stat tracking bugs, though the solo developer is praised for active support. Sentiment is mostly positive, though a few find it boring.
