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 laid-back, hands-on experience of renovating and running your own brewpub, where the satisfaction comes from brewing custom beers and slowly building a cozy, personalized space.

What players say

Players enjoy brewing and pouring beer, but say the game was abandoned after release in 2023 with bugs and crashes unresolved. The core loop is fun for a while, but once content runs out there is nothing more, and staff are not very useful.
