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 cute but punishing retro platformer where you frantically collect scattered food while avoiding deadly spikes.

What players say

Players agree it is a very short, cute Mario-style platformer starring a cat that can be completed in 10 to 15 minutes. Some find the jumping awkward with keyboard mashing, and a few point out cheap deaths from camera transitions. Reviews are split on difficulty, with one calling it rage-quit hard while others breeze through it.
