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 lighthearted, quirky sci-fi diner sim where you serve aliens in a turn-based strategy format with a humorous tone.

What players say

Players praise the art, voice acting and humor but warn the game is very short, around 30 minutes. The first boss is a difficulty spike that does not hold back, and combat mixes Undertale-style turn-based attacks with platforming. Players split on polish and recommend it not at full price.
