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

Wandering through a serene, nature-reclaimed island, you tinker with dormant magitech puzzles at a relaxed pace, unraveling quiet secrets.

What players say

Players praise the clever puzzles and relaxing atmosphere, calling it a bite-sized experience that makes them feel clever. However, they note a lack of polish with invisible walls and missing quality-of-life features, and some found later levels frustratingly dark.
