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, permadeath-tinged shootout where you customize your bullets while fending off endless zombie hordes in a pixelated castle.

What players say

Players compare it to a roguelite take on Call of Duty Zombies, but most find it repetitive and poorly balanced for solo play. The single gun never feels different, motion blur cannot be disabled, and there is no tutorial. A few enjoy it as a bite-sized game for a low price, especially on sale.
