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

You slowly rotate a humble cube up a mountain path, each bumpy edge a deliberate step, in a sparse, meditative puzzle of motion and direction.

What players say

Players praise the developer's audio commentary and hidden easter eggs, but warn that moving as a cube is tricky and the game demands patience.
