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 charming, low-pressure game where you run a frog-themed café with a gentle, whimsical atmosphere.

What players say

Players love the cute frog theme and addictive Suika-style merging, but find it unexpectedly stressful with tight timers and some bosses that feel unfair. A few note bugged boss achievements and hope for updates.
