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 chaotic and fast-paced multiplayer brawl where unique characters with distinct abilities clash in hazard-filled arenas.

What players say

Players love it as a chaotic party game best played with friends locally, though solo and online modes exist. The rounds are fast and unpredictable thanks to unique character abilities and hazard-filled arenas. Some wish for mouse menu support and shorter between-round timers.
