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 nostalgic, laid-back survival game where you click to eat and avoid being eaten, evoking the feel of a 90s educational computer lab game.

What players say

Players praise it as a faithful homage to the 90s edutainment classic Odell Down Under, with relaxing music and simple eat-or-be-eaten gameplay. But some say it comes up short of the original, has annoying bugs, and the developer has not updated it.
