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 tycoon simulation where you design, produce, and sell products across multiple industries, managing resources and marketing at your own pace.

What players say

Players enjoy the simple micro-management but say development stopped in 2021, leaving bugs and a lack of depth. The game is addictive for hours, though once the flow is understood it becomes a money go up simulator.
