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 calm, gentle simulation where you carefully balance resources and customize a colorful aquarium to care for your fish.

What players say

Players are split: some find it a relaxing timekiller with a massive skill tree, while others call it a boring clicker. A common exploit is letting fish die for easy skill points. Long-time players report development stalled.
