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 warm, relaxed stroll through a colorful retro arcade where you play quirky minigames and gently help a friendly ghost move on.

What players say

Players love the cute art and retro arcade concept, but consistent crashes and progress-loss bugs frustrate many. Mini-game difficulty varies wildly and keyboard controls feel clunky.
