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 methodical retro economic simulation where you build up a farm and social standing through careful resource management and strategic decisions.

What players say

Players say it is a punishing, repetitive old-school simulation that rewards trial and error. The hotseat multiplayer is praised, but some miss features from the classic version like the hunting mini-game. Players split on whether the heavy randomness undermines strategy.
