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.

Fast-paced side-scrolling combat with expressive fighting mechanics in a fantasy feudal Japan setting.

What players say

Players say this is a clunky mobile port with frequent crashes and unresponsive controls. The art looks promising but gameplay feels sluggish, with canned attack animations and problematic grappling hook sections. The short, unsatisfying ending compounds the frustration.
