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.

You watch cute, self-moving dragons fly across your desktop in a calm, low-pressure screensaver-like experience.

What players say

Players enjoy the simple, non-interactive desktop dragons. The game is a cute and nostalgic screensaver-style app, ideal for streamers. Some note that the dragon hotkeys often fail to work. Many wish for more features like dragon interaction, customization, or a control panel, a few highlight that the textures are blocky.
