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 calming, methodical puzzle game where you build logical rules to automate solving Minesweeper-like challenges, leaving only the hard situations.

What players say

Players build rules to automatically solve minesweeper puzzles, which makes the game a logic puzzle about pattern recognition. The UI is polarizing, with some finding it clunky and hard to learn while others love it once it clicks. The game can be CPU and memory intensive, and late puzzles demand hours of computation.
