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.

What players say

Players describe Chime as a relaxing music puzzle game that blends Tetris-like piece placement with a sweeping beat. Many praise the soundtrack, especially the Philip Glass track, though they note there are only six songs. Some find the timed mode restrictive, while others enjoy both casual and competitive options. The game is not Steam Deck compatible.
