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

building and managing a zoo feels laid-back and methodical, with a focus on animal care and ecosystem creation rather than high pressure.

What players say

Players say this is basically a simpler, blockier take on the Wildlife Park series. It lacks a proper tutorial and has performance issues, but fans of the genre enjoy the cute toy-like aesthetic and easy controls.
