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 gentle, low-stakes game where you dash around a cozy town delivering packages, go fishing, and decorate a cat room at your own pace.

What players say

Players say the cute art style hides a punishing platformer where jumping slows the cat down, making precision timing critical. The gap between casual appearance and hardcore execution is a recurring point, especially for three-star runs. Reviews split: some enjoy the challenge and furniture rewards, others find it unrelaxing.
