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 quick, local multiplayer button-matching party game where speed decides the winner.

What players say

Players say the game is mindless fun for a minute but has no depth, since spamming all direction keys with zero penalty gets high scores easily. The lack of punishment for errors kills any challenge, so it feels like a typing test or a browser game rather than a real game.
