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 frantic, darkly comic dungeon crawl through a sci-fi prison infested with mutants, where survival means outrunning both hordes and rival inmates.

What players say

Players compare it to Hades with guns, but say it is more difficult and grindy. Many note a slow start where upgrades are needed before the game opens up. A long-standing screen-blocking bug is reported, and reviews disagree on whether the progression and currency system feel satisfying or artificially padded.
