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 strategic civilization simulation where players manage survival and development under chaotic gravitational forces and temperature shifts.

What players say

Players say it is more of a screensaver or a hang-on live stream than a game, with very little player interaction and no tutorial. The early part relies heavily on luck, and choices rarely matter for the civilization. Long-time followers praise the developer's effort but warn buyers to expect a low-playable spectator experience.
