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 frantic, cartoony brawler where you punch waves of silly-looking germs in a small arena.

What players say

Players call this a short wave-based brawler with cute blood-cell theming that overstays its welcome. The lack of a double jump makes flying enemies frustrating, upgrades max out early, and some call the later waves repetitive. A few note performance bugs like enemy spawns inside the player.
