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

frantic action of slashing upward through breaking ceilings while dodging lava and rescuing princesses in a colorful, cartoonishly over-the-top medieval setting.

What players say

Players call it a short and fun game to complete, though the Steam version has bugs and no mouse controls, which some fans of the original web game miss.
