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, minimalist puzzle game where you steadily solve increasingly complex challenges at your own pace without any timers or pressure.

What players say

Players describe ZHED as a minimalist logic puzzle with a unique mechanic where numbered tiles move in straight lines. It starts easy but gets quite challenging, with some levels introducing misleading tiles. Players appreciate the lack of timers and the ability to restart freely.
