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 gentle, brain-teasing puzzle game where you methodically push boxes across tidy isometric levels, with occasional twists like stairs and teleporters that add quiet satisfaction without pressure.

What players say

Players say Box Factory is a short Sokoban-inspired puzzle game with 27 levels that takes about 2-3 hours to complete. Reviews mention uneven difficulty where some levels are trivial and others frustrating, and the isometric perspective makes controls awkward until you rotate the camera. A few players note the game runs at un capped framerates with no fps limiter.
