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 relentless arcade driving experience with constant obstacles and power-ups, set to upbeat music and flashy visuals.

What players say

Players describe this as a bare-bones endless runner using FMV highway footage and just two keys to dodge obstacles. There is only one car model and no menu, and while the low price is appreciated, many say it quickly runs out of variety.
