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

Driving feels like a blend of arcade looseness and slight simulation weight, demanding precise but forgiving control through winding valley tracks.

What players say

Players praise the arcade time-trial design and the grounded countryside tracks. They split on the driving, with some loving the precision demanded by technical corners and others finding the controls frustratingly slippery.
