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

an over-the-top pixelated brawler delivers nonstop gory combat with a darkly comedic tone and frantic arcade pace.

What players say

Players split on this beat 'em up. Some enjoy it as a short, simple couch co-op romp with a trashy charm, but far more say it is clunky, repetitive, and not worth the $20 price. Complaints center on an awkward grapple mechanic, a runtime under two hours, a confusing story, and minimal combat variety.
