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, cartoonish adventure that feels like a vibrant, dimension-hopping romp with explosive weapons and playful humor.

What players say

Players praise the satisfying weapons and fast-paced platforming, and the game successfully captures the feel of older Ratchet & Clank titles. But sentiment is split: long-time fans enjoy the nostalgia while many criticize the port for stuttering, crashes, and a soundtrack that lacks memorable tunes.
