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 puzzle game that shifts between tense timed matches and a calm, music-driven mode, demanding quick thinking on a colorful hex grid.

What players say

Players praise the improved music and new game modes over the original, with options for timed or relaxed play. Some find the sequel too similar to the first game and question why it wasn't just an update. A few reviews criticize the developer's trademark disputes.
