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 finish it in under an hour and find the loop repetitive, comparing it unfavorably to Spilled. The music is relaxing and the art is cute, but progression feels shallow and upgrades barely matter. Many call it a port of a free mobile game and say it is not worth full price.
