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 slow-burn strategy game where each turn feels like a careful step through a living chronicle of ancient family survival.

What players say
Players describe a quiet, casual board-game-like strategy game that is easy to learn but can become repetitive. It revolves around guiding a family through generations using coin-slot tokens, with luck heavily influencing outcomes. Long-time players note that a promised sequel never arrived, leaving the project feeling unfinished.
