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 charmingly whimsical arcade game where you dodge obstacles as a goofy frog through minimalist landscapes, accompanied by a playful soundtrack.

What players say

Players call it a modern indie take on Frogger, with one noting clunky controls and turtles that dive too fast. Some enjoy it for short play sessions, while another critic calls it an unethical ripoff of the original.
