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
A cinematic platformer with deliberate, challenging precision jumping and evolving art styles that shift through historical periods, creating a museum-like atmosphere.

What players say
Players compare it to classic Prince of Persia, praising the unique art styles across different historical chapters. However, many find the controls clunky and the game frustratingly difficult, with bugs further marring the experience.
