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, calming match-3 puzzle journey through vibrant cultural scenes that feels both relaxing and thoughtfully engaging.

What players say

Players appreciate the variety of four match-3 modes and a rotatable board, but many find the temple system restrictive and less enjoyable than Tales of the Orient: The Rising Sun. Reviews are split: some call it fantastic and decent on sale, while others find the forced playstyles frustrating, the stages grindy, and the experience boring compared to the developer's earlier work.
