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 short, linear side-scroller that blends violent axe-and-shield combat with simple puzzles in a grim Viking saga.

What players say

Players find this a very short side-scrolling action game with puzzles and Norse mythology themes. Some praise the atmosphere and controls, while others call it an unfinished proof of concept. There are reports that gamepad support is limited and some gameplay elements feel clunky.
