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 lighthearted, mischievous board game where you scheme and swindle to collect an inheritance with playful trickery.

What players say

Players compare it to a simplified, European Monopoly with no trading and an AI that buys properties mindlessly, but many find it too slow, random, and boring to recommend.
