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 meditative, low-stakes loop of casually feeding a black hole by clicking on and destroying celestial objects.

What players say

Players say the main campaign is a tight, relaxing 2-hour run, but the tree branches are an illusion, you can only unlock what's directly in front of you. Opinion splits on the extra modes: some enjoy the variety, most call them padding that drags a short game into a grind for achievements.
