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 are an inanimate grilled sausage in a deadpan absurdist comedy where there is nothing to do but exist.

What players say

Players praise the absurd realism of grilling mici, from sizzle sounds to the radio chatter, but split on the realistic mode, some find it a joke, others too hard. Many note it is a Romanian niche with no multiplayer and unoptimized performance, and one reviewer asks for subtitles since the AI-made soundtrack is criticised.
