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, old-school shooter with absurd traps and explosive weapons, feeling like a hyperactive 90s arcade game.

What players say
Players call this a classic 90s FPS with character, but many say it has aged badly and recommend the Ludicrous Edition instead. Controls are an issue, and the port is just a DOSBox wrapper.
