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.

What players say

Players agree the AI is unreliable and the rules are implemented incorrectly, for example allowing illegal draws or failing to score red threes properly. The online multiplayer is dead, with very few players ever seen. Some enjoy the game despite these flaws, but rule errors frustrate experienced Canasta players.
