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 tense, high-stakes multiplayer survival game where each turn's random outcome keeps the adrenaline pumping but the core action is repetitive.

What players say

Players enjoy the core concept but split on the execution. Multiplayer suffers from high latency and low population, making it hard to find real opponents, while single player works fine. Many call for a peer-to-peer model and a restart button instead of creating a new lobby each game.
