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 methodical bridge-building puzzler where you test engineering against zombie hordes, blending tension with darkly comic satisfaction.

What players say

Players praise the crossover story concept, but many struggle with buggy and inconsistent physics that can change between attempts, with saving bridge edits reportedly broken. Difficulty spikes sharply, especially for later levels and achievements.
