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, open-ended sandbox where you wander and cause small mischief as a cat, with friends or alone, at your own pace.

What players say

Players are split on City of Cats. Some enjoy it as a chill game to play with friends, but others find the world empty and controls imprecise. Several reviewers note the game needs more development time, and long-time players say updates have stalled.
