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 meditative, minimalist puzzle game where you push blocks in a text-based world inspired by cellular automata.

What players say
Players compare it to Baba Is You, saying it blends Sokoban block-pushing with rule-mutation mechanics that get deeper in later chapters. The puzzle design is seen as clever and rewarding, but the lack of tutorial hints makes it extremely difficult, often causing players to get stuck early.
