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 colorful, turn-based tactical brawler where gladiators fight brutally and can lose limbs.

What players say

Players return to the series for nostalgia, but they are split on the execution. Many say the UI is clunky and you cannot skip repetitive animations. Others praise the soundtrack and the depth of builds. There are complaints that melee builds underperform at high difficulty and that save corruption can erase progress. The 300-day limit bothers some, while others enjoy the perma-death challenge.
