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 laid-back and oddly satisfying incremental loop where you reel in ridiculous numbers of fish without much effort.

What players say

Players enjoy the incremental fishing concept but are split on pacing, with many calling the midgame grindy and the endgame too quick. The DNA mechanic is seen as interesting but shallow, as one fish type dominates optimal strategy.
