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 thoughtful, instructional strategy game where you manage a biological cell, making calm, precise decisions to keep it alive and functioning.

What players say

Players praise the unique snake-style movement and deep customization through nucleotide bases and modifiers. Strategy fans call it a satisfying puzzly tactics game, though some describe it as punishing when you misjudge combos. One commander, the Joker, introduces extreme visual distortions that can make the board hard to read.
