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 minimalist puzzle game that pairs a relaxing soundtrack with a time-limited, focused assembly challenge.

What players say

Players are split on the timer: some find it adds fun challenge and mental agility, while others say it ruins the relaxing puzzle experience of previous games. The game is very short, around 20-40 minutes for 31 levels, and some dislike that only clicking the center of pieces rotates them.
