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 classic, jump-and-run platformer with a humorous tone and old-school difficulty, requiring careful timing to avoid spikes and logs.

What players say

Players see this as a bare-bones emulated ROM of a 1992 Game Boy game, sold by Piko Interactive at a price many call too high. The port lacks colorization and widescreen support, though the soundtrack and precise controls are praised. Some note the difficulty is high, but save states help.
