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 smash piggy banks repeatedly to earn money and pay bills in a fast-paced, satisfying loop.

What players say

Players say it is a relaxing and satisfying incremental game about smashing piggy banks and upgrading rings and skills. Many love it for the price, but the playtime is short, around 3 to 4 hours, with little content past the ending, and players split on whether it is worth it or just streamer bait.
