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 methodical word puzzle that demands careful tile placement and lateral thinking to maximize points.

What players say
Players compare it to Scrabble or Bookworm, noting it starts simple but requires strategic letter placement for high scores. Opinions split on the end game: some find it cleverly challenging, others say it relies on unremovable stone tiles rather than skill. Games run from 20 minutes to hours.
