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, low-stakes word game where you slowly drop letters and feel a quiet satisfaction from chaining words together.

What players say

Players enjoy the core word-block combo mechanic and soundtrack, but note the demo covers nearly everything and endless mode never gets harder. Some also report words missing from the dictionary and the custom word list feature not working.
