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

Frenetic urban combat with a supernatural edge, slicing through neon-lit streets as a ghostly being inhabiting human bodies.

What players say

Players praise the fresh body-hopping concept but say the execution feels rough and repetitive. Many cite level recycling, few enemy types, and a small roster of characters as problems. Some find the combat fun, while others call it broken and unbalanced. Sentiment splits on whether the unique ideas overcome the jank.
