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 calm, methodical puzzle game where you carefully maneuver chess knights across a board to rescue pieces without triggering enemies.

What players say
Players say this is a casual puzzle game using only the knight's L-shaped move, not a chess simulator. The campaign is short at about 2.5 hours, and difficulty varies wildly from simple to frustrating spikes. Some find it relaxing, others call it boring and unchallenging.
