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 playful sandbox where you tinker with physics and contraptions to solve puzzles or build whimsical machines, alone or with friends.

What players say
Players overwhelmingly call it a faithful successor to The Incredible Machine, often playing it with their own children and finding the same creative puzzle-solving fun. A few adults say it lacks challenge and the graphics are off-putting, and some reviewers note missing colorblind support.
