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 enjoy this short, quirky card game that plays less like a TCG and more like a puzzle on a 3x3 board, with cards connecting via arrows. Many wish it had multiplayer, and some find the early grind for packs tedious.
