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

Piloting a highly customizable mech through intense, omni-directional battles demanding precise movement and loadout strategy.

What players say

Players praise the combat as deeply satisfying and the mech customization as flexible, with missions that stay fresh. The real story is locked behind New Game Plus, forcing replays. Some report the game stops launching after many hours due to the anti-cheat, and a few find the boss fights force a narrow melee-and-shotgun meta.
