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 lighthearted, top-down card game where you gather ingredients and chat to find a traitor while making a hotpot dish.

What players say

Players say it is a lightweight werewolf game best with exactly four people, though the spy's final quiz gives a random 33% win chance that frustrates some. Reviews praise the accessible rules and NPC play, but note the werewolf side is at a disadvantage and solo play can feel luck-based when the AI decides you are suspicious.
