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 whimsical yet tense journey of random events and resource management, like a quirky pixel-art Oregon Trail.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple Oregon Trail-style text adventure with random events that can feel unfair due to RNG. The writing and quirky humor are praised, but bugs and event repetition are common complaints.
