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 colorful, turn-based board game where martial-arts warriors push and kick each other in a lighthearted tactical battle for territory.

What players say

Players praise the stage editor and challenging AI but say the physics are wonky and the Chinese translation is bizarre. Many note the ugly character faces and that the online multiplayer is effectively dead, leaving only local play against the computer.
