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, minimalist puzzle game where you carefully navigate brothers through grid-based environments, avoiding threats with deliberate movement and box-dragging mechanics.

What players say

Players praise the challenging puzzles and progressive difficulty, though some say the story is shallow and the puzzles feel disconnected. Many note a slow start where the game is hard to grasp at first.
