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 run through cartoonish low-poly levels shooting tyrants and completing linear missions like planting bombs or guarding vehicles.

What players say

Players praise the satirical political story but split sharply on the execution: many report game-breaking bugs, glitchy AI, and a short length of about one hour, while others say the novelty of the premise makes up for the frustrating gameplay.
