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 gentle but gradually challenging puzzle game where you guide cute animals through colorful grid-based levels.

What players say

Players describe it as a free Sokoban-style puzzle where all critters move at once, forcing careful sequencing. Art style and animal mechanics get praise, but opinions split on difficulty: some find it relaxing, others say later levels are brain-frying.
