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 former cop's tense holiday getaway turns into a gritty, fast-paced fight against festive terrorists and a cult.

What players say

Players say it is a short, sweet Christmas-themed boomer shooter that plays like Doom or Duke Nukem. It is very easy even on the hardest difficulty, takes under two hours to beat, and has a charming flash animation art style. Some wish it had Steam achievements.
