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

You carefully plot each second of a sword fight, then watch your planned sequence play out like a short film.

What players say

Players describe a frame-by-frame samurai puzzle game where you choreograph attacks on a timeline. The core idea is praised as unique and satisfying, but the UI is rough and the game feels like a polished prototype rather than a full release.
