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 meticulous and demanding simulation of running a TV station, where every scheduling decision carries significant weight and the audience is a complex, living system.

What players say

Players are worried the developer may have abandoned the game since early 2026. They say the UI feels too simple but the variety is passable for the price. Many enjoy dozens of hours but consider it undercooked and comparable to a cheap indie game. A change to block Chinese input is a source of confusion.
