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 slow, logical puzzle where you build tidy factories to transform a single letter into words.

What players say

Players say the game is a factory puzzle about discovering recipes for each letter, but it gets repetitive quickly. Many wish for copy-paste and blueprint features that are missing. The game has not been updated since 2023, and players are split on whether the short runtime is worth the price.
