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, educational simulation where you nurture microscopic life and observe ecosystems develop, with occasional tension from viral outbreaks.

What players say

Players praise the concept of simulating cell biology, but split on the execution: some find it complex and rewarding, while others feel it offers little control or explanation. The game is long and hard, and early access issues like missing save features hold it back.
