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

Exploring a sunny skateboarding city, learning tricks through minigames and chatting with locals, with a gentle combo battle system.

What players say

Players love the witty, political writing and the novelty of a turn-based battle system built around skateboard tricks. The game is short, around two hours, and leaves them wanting more. The manual minigame is notoriously tough, and getting beaten by an elderly character is a recurring joke.
