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 seemingly cute farming game that is actually challenging and punishing, with a focus on deep planting mechanics rather than simple care.

What players say

Players describe the game as a challenging farming sim where a single mistake kills your crops and ends the run. The lack of clear instructions and unfinished features frustrates some, but others enjoy the difficulty and satisfaction of improving. Bugs and rough UI are common complaints, though the cute pixel art and unique premise keep players invested.
