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 puzzle game where you switch between two distinct characters, carefully planning each move to avoid irreversible mistakes.

What players say

Players control two or three cubes that move and build differently, creating a puzzle platformer that gets tricky with move-count rankings. The game has 50 levels and a level editor, but some reviewers report the base game has been unbeatable for over a year with no developer response, while others note difficult achievements and a few mention only three music tracks.
