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, minimalist chess tutor that challenges you with pattern recognition and a subtly idiosyncratic AI personality.

What players say
Players say the puzzles are grouped well to practice patterns but the game is very short with around 20 puzzles. The UI feels janky and movement is slow, and the snarky bot's personality comes across as toxic to some. Explanations for correct moves are lacking, making it less useful for novices.
