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 fast-paced arcade dungeon shooter with quirky humor and retro-inspired gameplay, best shared with a friend.

What players say
Players compare Skein to Gauntlet, praising its fast-paced action and pixel art, but many are frustrated by the grid-based movement and inability to shoot while moving. The 45-degree attack angle is a common sticking point, though fans of the genre appreciate the co-op and procedural levels.
