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

Driving a garbage truck through randomly generated streets, compacting hundreds of trash items with satisfying physics and authentic sound effects feels methodical and relaxing.

What players say

Players appreciate the destruction physics and find it relaxing short-term, but nearly all agree the game was abandoned by developers in 2023 with no updates since, leaving it lacking content and variety.
