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-paced, competitive arcade runner where you test reflexes and climb leaderboards with friends in local split-screen.

What players say

Players describe Polyrun as a straightforward infinite runner that nails the 'one more try' loop. It offers three modes including local multiplayer, but some note unobtainable achievements and wish the restart after dying were faster instead of a 30-second wait.
