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 deliberately obscure puzzle game where you must figure out the rules through trial and error while navigating a whimsical papercraft world with no instructions.

What players say

Players appreciate the humor and the challenge of figuring out how to play without guidance. Some find the small map repetitive and wish for multiplayer, though it was later added.
