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 fast-paced arcade game where you steer Cthulhu through obstacle-filled seas using moon-powered waves.

What players say

Players describe this as a mobile endless runner ported to Steam with little adaptation. The gravity-based wave riding mechanic is novel, but reviews consistently say the difficulty is artificially inflated to push paid upgrades, with coins costing far more than what you earn per attempt.
