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 gentle, low-stakes pixel-art hop through a swamp, collecting coins while avoiding simple traps.

What players say

Players praise the creativity and price, but consistently warn about steep difficulty that can be frustration-inducing. A hidden world unlocks by collecting all coins and flies. Reviews note the diagonal movement takes getting used to.
