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 relaxing, low-stakes card game paired with gentle conversation and endearing character interactions in a warm retirement-community setting.

What players say

Players appreciate having a dedicated Cribbage game on Steam, but many note the rules are wrong: high card deals instead of low, and skunks are not scored. The AI is easy to beat even on its hardest setting, and there are no achievements or multiplayer. The characters and art style are charming, and the game works well on Steam Deck.
