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

Skill-driven combat with manual targeting and acrobatic dodging makes every encounter feel tense and precise.

What players say

Players say the multiplayer is dead, leaving an empty world with no one to fight. The combat is an interesting non-target system with MOBA-style arenas, but beyond that the cash shop is aggressive and there is no meaningful single-player content.
