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 and methodical word puzzle that feels like a visual logic challenge, blending language learning with stroke pattern deduction.

What players say

Players describe a free Chinese idiom guessing game with two modes: one shows overlapping strokes to guess a four-character phrase, the other rates word similarity. It is considered creative but hard, especially for those without strong Chinese skills. Some find the word-meaning mode inconsistent, while others praise the brain-teasing challenge.
