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 thoughtful, atmospheric experience that blends cute visuals with heavy existential questions, inviting slow strategic exploration of life and death.

What players say

Players praise the emotional story about life and death, with strong characters and voice acting. The real-time strategy combat is simple but some find the UI awkward. A controller is preferred over keyboard.
