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

It feels like a chaotic, fast-paced arcade battle where you defend a base and grab power-ups in a colorful, physics-driven free-for-all.

What players say

Players call it a great concept with terrible execution. The single European server makes it unplayable outside Europe, the earthquake power-up is overpowered, and multiplayer is mostly dead with bots filling empty slots. The in-game chat cannot be muted, and development appears to have stopped in late 2020.
