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 straightforward free-to-play pixel-art shooter where you methodically aim at robot enemies while following character-driven stories.

What players say

Players enjoy the art style and character stories but say the wave-based gameplay gets repetitive. The experience is short, around three to four hours, with a cliche plot and occasional grammar issues. Some find the manual reload button annoying.
