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
You rely solely on a shield to deflect powerful attacks and survive relentless boss battles in a ruined pixel-art kingdom.

What players say
Players enjoy the core parry mechanic but report many bugs, including not unlocking achievements, controllers not working, and respawning always at the start of the game rather than near the boss. The game is short, about an hour and a half, and some say it feels repetitive.
