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

You run a cozy DIY store and repair shop, organizing shelves and tending to customers in a colorful, casual first-person sim.

What players say

Players are split on this early access simulator. Many praise the developers' responsiveness and the unique character models, but others warn that development has been abandoned. Some complain about a slow XP grind, customers who are never satisfied, and spending too much time on the tablet restocking shelves rather than working in the workshop.
