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

Throwing snowballs and frantically building defenses in a chaotic, family-friendly snowball fight.

What players say

Players say it captures the fun of childhood snowball fights, but the difficulty ramps up quickly as AI aim becomes punishing. The physicality of ducking, building, and throwing is a highlight, though many find rebuilding forts each level tedious. Players are loud about wanting multiplayer and more content.
