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 quirky, non-violent puzzle-maze game that feels methodical and slightly offbeat as you collect tools and avoid enemies.

What players say

Players call Gubble a fun, nostalgic puzzle game from the 90s with a unique Pac-Man-meets-power-tools feel, but note frustrating invisible walkways, ridiculous precision demands, and secret zymbots. The Steam version makes things easier by changing the original's limited save system, which long-time fans say removes some challenge.
