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 relentless, fast-paced first-person shooter demanding sharp reflexes and strategic thinking through procedurally generated arenas and brutal boss fights.

What players say

Players praise the creative blessing system and fast-paced roguelike shooting, but many find enemy health scales unfairly, turning later levels into tedious bullet sponges. The multiplayer is effectively dead due to region locking and empty queues. Despite developer support, the game is widely called unbalanced and unfinished.
