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 quick, relaxed turn-based puzzle duel where you casually outmaneuver increasingly cunning AI opponents.

What players say

Players describe Gem Master as a quick, competitive flood-filling game with surprising strategic depth. They praise the varied AI opponents but note the lack of tutorials, multiplayer, and windowed mode. Games take only a minute or two, but the hardest AI requires careful planning.
