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 bright, arcade-style beat 'em up with fast, punchy combat and a colorful anime aesthetic, best enjoyed with friends.

What players say

Players say the combat is fluid and the combos are satisfying, but the story mode is very short and only four characters are playable. Leveling each character from scratch feels grindy, and the game is priced too high for what it offers.
