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 chill and relaxing idle game where you catch fantasy fish, customize your aquarium, and unwind with lo-fi music and a pomodoro timer.

What players say

Players find the game charming and cute but extremely short and lacking content for an idle game. Many report the loop amounts to checking inventory every few minutes, with fast progression that leaves little to do after upgrades. Bugs and UI glitches are common, with some players unable to progress. Fans praise the aquarium and cozy aesthetic, while critics call the game a bare framework.
