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 modest, old-school 2D platformer with repetitive levels and simple gameplay.

What players say

Players find this a decent seasonal platformer with 30 levels, but controls are rough -- snowballs fire slowly, ice sections are hard to read, and invisible gaps cause frustration. Many call it cozy and worth a dollar, though one reviewer raises spyware concerns about the game's files.
