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 methodical, surreal puzzle game where mirror-movement challenges your logic at a relaxed but demanding pace.

What players say

Players call it a challenging puzzle game where you control two mirrored characters at once across 60 levels. Split on polish: some find it clever and worth the price, others see it as a basic flash-style design. The game includes boss fights and six locations but stays short.
