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

A chaotic yet atmospheric top-down action game where you frantically dodge, jump, and retrieve your spear while fending off waves of colorful enemies.

What players say

Players fight hordes of frog-like enemies with a single spear they must retrieve after each throw, a mechanic that forces careful aim. Reviews agree it is a simple, challenging arcade survival game with easy achievements, best bought on sale. Some call it shovelware from a developer known for low-quality template games.
