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 guide a chubby cat through randomly generated streets, dodging obstacles and catching birds to unlock costumes.

What players say

Players describe it as a simpler, less stressful version of montaro with one-button jumping and collecting birds to unlock costumes. Opinions are split on the difficulty: some find it easy and relaxing, others note unlucky deaths within seconds.
