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

A frantic co-op scramble where you and your friends must race to coordinate defenses against waves of enemies, feeling like a high-pressure team puzzle.

What players say

Players say the game is a decent co-op distraction that resembles a simpler, more chill Overcooked, but warn it gets repetitive and is far too easy. Community sentiment is that development stalled in 2018, the controls are awkward, and the interface is messy. Most agree it requires friends to be fun, as single player and online play are not rewarding.
