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 feel like a scrappy underdog hacker, carefully planning heists in a neon-drenched, 80s-inspired world where every move has consequences and the clock is always ticking.

What players say

Players compare it to Tempest 2000 and Super Hexagon, describing a tunnel-dodging arcade game with a hacking theme and 80s cyber aesthetic. Reviews note it is addictive and satisfying but can be completed in six hours or less, and some find the gameplay loop repetitive.
