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 frenetic, neon-drenched romp through Tokyo's underworld with fast katana combat and a gritty, pulpy tone.

What players say

Players describe an indie FPS with a katana, manga-style cutscenes, and neon visuals that borrow from Suda51 and No More Heroes. The campaign includes hub-world minigames like pachinko and UFO catchers that some find addictive. Opinions split on the bosses: several call them painful while others find them serviceable. Performance can drop when killing many enemies at once.
