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
An idle game that sits on your desktop as a retro TV, offering low-key mystery and playful discovery.

What players say
Players praise the interconnected mini-games and nostalgic channel-surfing concept, calling it a delightful workday distraction. However, some say the game is shallow and becomes boring quickly, and that bugs prevent progress.
