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 develop and manage a charming pixel-art golf course, carefully expanding and decorating while attracting customers and climbing seasonal rankings at a gentle, strategic pace.

What players say

Players say this is a typical Kairosoft casual golf course builder, but the PC port feels unfinished: you cannot change resolution or rebind keys, and the game expects a controller. Golfers blindly walk through trees instead of following the fairway, which frustrates those who build complex holes. Reviews are split on whether the management systems have enough depth.
