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 calm, methodical puzzle game where you align lasers and mirrors to mix colors, accompanied by soothing music.

What players say

Players praise the elegant, simple color-beam mechanic but warn of a steep difficulty spike and a progress-saving bug. The game is short, cheap, and addictive, though some criticize the use of RYB colors instead of RGB and note a lack of color-blind accessibility.
