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, stylish action game where you dash through robot hordes with flashy combos and comedic spy banter.

What players say

Players appreciate the combat but note technical issues like poor movement controls and random target switching. The limited enemy variety disappoints, while boss fights are praised. High difficulty is a point of division, with some calling higher modes nearly impossible.
