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 strategic and serene yet tense tree-growing simulation where you carefully manage resources to survive harsh winters and bear fruit.

What players say
Players enjoy the cheerful narrator and the relaxing, turn-based tree growth, but they note the gameplay becomes repetitive after a few hours and relies heavily on random mutations. The game also suffers from crashes when the tree grows large, and some players find the challenge frustratingly luck-dependent.
