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 quick, reflex-driven descent through procedurally generated cubes that feels tense and addictive.

What players say

Players are split on whether Cubus is relaxing or frustrating, with several pointing out it demands fast reflexes and can be stressful despite the tag. Some enjoy quick achievement unlocks and short score-chasing sessions, while others find it boring within an hour. It is seen as simple and fine for its low price.
