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.

A lighthearted, whimsical chase where you solve puzzles while being pursued by a quirky duck.

What players say

Players are torn on the duck that chases you, some find it frustrating and unnecessary, others say it adds tension. The game hooks players quickly with a mix of puzzle platforming and speedrunning, encouraging route optimization and competing for low times. Difficulty spikes fast, leading to frequent restarts, but many find the loop addicting.
