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, explosion-filled arcade shooter with destructible environments and quirky characters.

What players say

Players are split on this PC port of the Xbox 360 game. Many praise the soundtrack and destructible environments, but a consistent complaint is the lack of multiplayer modes found in the original, making the single-player feel repetitive and monotonous. Some also mention heavy visual clutter that makes it hard to see what is happening.
