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.

What players say

Players love the premise of a retired villain forced back into action, but many bounce off the lack of in-game maps and heavy backtracking that turns later areas into maze-like slogs. A common complaint is that the game starts strong then becomes repetitive about halfway through.
