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 fast-paced party game where players race to craft the funniest or most fitting tabloid headlines from random words, then vote on the best one.

What players say

Players compare it to Jackbox and Cards Against Humanity, with the twist that you write your own words for headlines. It works well with three or more, and the timer is adjustable in settings for longer thinking.
