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 tense, precise platformer where you must constantly swap between colored blocks to survive traps and reach the goal.

What players say

Players call Prio a punishing precision platformer that demands quick thinking and hand-eye coordination to switch block colors while jumping. The difficulty can be spikey, with no online level sharing despite an editor. Some note the game is not colorblind friendly, and others warn it is nearly unplayable with a compact keyboard.
