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

Match Point feels like a high-energy couch party where players bounce around a shifting arena, frantically tethering and kicking the ball in a chaotic tug-of-war.

What players say

Players say it is a polished, fast-paced couch multiplayer game that elevates Pong with platformer mechanics and a tether move. However, it is local multiplayer only with no single-player, no bots, and no online, plus it requires a controller. Players disagree on whether the asking price is worth it.
