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.

A fast-paced, team-oriented shooter where you coordinate with friends using diverse hero abilities in bright, optimistic battles.

What players say

Players are torn between loving the core gameplay and hating almost everything around it. Many call the monetization predatory, with overpriced bundles and a grind that pushes real money purchases. The community gets described as toxic, matchmaking as unfair, and bans as arbitrary. A vocal group still enjoys the game, but even they wish for better balance and more love for older heroes.
