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 meticulous, low-tempo puzzle-sim where you methodically build logic circuits from transistors to escape an unknown facility.

What players say
Players praise Hard Chip as a deep logic design game that teaches real transistor-level circuits through a spaceship repair story. The difficulty is self-directed, allowing lazy or obsessive optimization. Some bugs and light documentation are noted, but the developer updates regularly.
