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 fast, rhythmic arcade game where you tap a single button to survive as long as possible in a colorful, minimalist space disco setting.

What players say

Players are split on One More Line. Some find it an addictive one-button arcade game for quick sessions, while others say the controls feel sluggish and unpredictable, with random node lock-on undermining skill. Many note the lack of a tutorial and a steep difficulty curve from the start, and a few call it a low-effort mobile port.
