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 hyper-fast party brawler where cute ninjas pop in and out of shadows, mixing chaotic local-multiplayer action with tactical surprise attacks.

What players say

Players praise this as a polished local multiplayer brawler with a unique stealth mechanic where ninjas hide in shadows. The art style and music are widely liked, and the game is considered easy to pick up but with depth. Some note it lacks online multiplayer and is still in early access.
