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, low-stakes sandbox for practicing electronic circuit principles at your own pace.

What players say

Players say the game fails to teach electronics, often requiring outside research or brute force. The puzzles are confusing and the user interface is poor, with glitches that undermine learning. A split exists: some find it a useful free tool for circuit practice, while others call it frustrating and not a true simulator.
