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 calm, thoughtful duet of growing a small farm through careful worker placement and resource management.

What players say

Players who know the physical game mostly find this a decent but flawed port. The biggest complaints are a missing or confusing tutorial, a clearly mobile-first UI with tiny icons and a 'tap to continue' message, and a game-breaking bug where the expansion cannot be selected. Some also report the AI freezing mid-turn. Multiplayer is described as dead.
