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 tense, punishing maze exploration that demands sharp memory and precision under constant pressure.

What players say

Players say this is a genuinely hard maze game that's fair once you learn patterns. Death sends you to the start of the maze, and limited lives add tension. The movement feels responsive, but some find it rewards memorization over reflexes.
