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.

What players say

Players describe Mixx Island as a short boss-rush shooter where you slide-dodge or shield instead of jumping. The neon visuals please some but hurt others' eyes. Players split on difficulty, with some calling it easy and others very hard, especially depending on which character they pick. A common criticism is that the game gets repetitive quickly.
