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

Driving a pizza van through monster hordes in short, chaotic runs feels like a frantic arcade delivery dash with darkly humorous stakes.

What players say

Players describe Pest Apocalypse as a fun take on the roguelite genre, mixing Crazy Taxi-style delivery with vehicular combat. The music is consistently praised. However, some report bugs like objectives getting stuck under the car, and others feel the weapons are weak even when upgraded, while a few find the start slow before it picks up with unlocks.
