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

You calmly build and explore a colorful Wild West world piece by piece, gathering resources and gently surviving against mild threats.

What players say

Players appreciate the unique sandbox mechanic of building the world as a puzzle, but say the game is grindy, clunky, and poorly optimized. Technical issues like crashes and disappearing textures are common, and long-time players report no updates or improvements since release.
