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, creative loop of tending your farm and running a dress-up atelier for customers who request specific outfits.

What players say

Players describe Cottonville as a charming but bare-bones farming sim. They praise the adorable art and relaxing loop of growing crops to craft and sell clothes, but call the gameplay shallow and repetitive with very slow animations. Many warn there is no controller support and some report lost save data. Disappointment over a suspended Kickstarter and missing features is common.
