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 calm, laid-back building experience where you relax and creatively plan settlements in a procedurally generated world.

What players say

Players describe it as a free, cozy puzzle game similar to Islanders but with a fixed perspective that makes placement critical. Many appreciate the relaxing loop, but there are consistent reports of DLC not unlocking after purchase and the developer not responding on Steam or Discord.
