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 write actual cooking steps an AI judges, making recipe creation the star. The story is short but replayable, and a sandbox mode lets you make anything. Players split on whether it is accessible, with some finding it tough on non-cooks.
