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 slow, thoughtful puzzle experience where you combine calculator buttons to hit target numbers, with a light roguelike structure and a calm, analytical feel.

What players say

Players praise the variety of calculators and difficulty options, though some miss a save button for longer endless runs and find that fun drops off after about four hours. Graphics are functional but can be hard to read at times.
