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, meditative puzzle game that challenges your mind with no distractions, just you and the tiles.

What players say

Players are split on Wayout. Some enjoy the calm aesthetic and the challenge of its tile-flipping puzzles, while others find the core mechanic uninteresting and say the game relies too heavily on trial and error. Many note the difficulty spikes sharply with no hints offered.
