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

You race against rivals to dig minerals and fill a cart, dodging chaos and combat in a fast-paced underground arena.

What players say

Players describe it as a chaotic 3D bomberman-like where moles mine crystals and blast each other with bombs and grappling hooks. It is best enjoyed with friends, though some note the camera struggles in tight spaces and the online player base is small.
