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.

What players say

Players say Hamster Scramble mixes bubble shooting with platforming: you chase and catch hamsters to turn them into ammo. Multiplayer lets you fly to the opponent's side and disrupt their setup. The story mode includes hand-designed puzzles with unlimited time, and maps have unique gimmicks like icy physics. A few reviews mention bugs but overall praise is high.
