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 frantic, angry top-down shooter where you vent frustration by blasting through procedurally generated enemy-filled gulags to a soundtrack of protest songs.

What players say

Players are split on this free top-down shooter. Many call it a buggy mess with crashes, invisible walls, and only one level. Others find it amusing for a short time, noting the Ukrainian theme and a dance animation when rescuing prisoners.
