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

You feel like a master planner orchestrating a heist with a team, balancing risk and reward in a tense but playful puzzle-box.

What players say

Players say it is a faithful digital version of the board game, capturing the heist tension and teamwork. Many find it hard and sometimes frustrating, especially the guard movement. Some criticize the interface for being shoddy, with typos and cut-off elements, while the ultra-wide resolution has an unfixed display bug.
