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 candy-obsessed idle adventure where you collect sweets, help villagers, and fight monsters in a playful world.

What players say

Players love this as a faithful, charming remake of the classic browser game with an art upgrade. The humor is weird and surprising, but some find it janky and difficult to understand, and there are display issues around fullscreen and widescreen.
