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.

What players say
Players praise the return to classic pixel-art Shantae with a strong soundtrack and responsive gameplay, but several note the lack of a map makes navigation frustrating. A few point out the campaign is around three hours and that some extras require rebuying the game as a deluxe edition.
