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

You juggle a growing stream of planes with frantic point-and-drag precision, balancing escalating pressure and strategic calm.

What players say

Players praise it as a simple, relaxing score chaser with nostalgic value from mobile days, but note it is quickly finished in a few hours. Some report it requires manual fixes on Windows 11, while others say it runs fine. The mouse controls feel less natural than touch.
