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 frantic, last-stand battle where every move is an attack and survival hinges on aggressive forward momentum.

What players say

Players say it is a novelty survivors-like where you mash keyboard keys to attack, which hurts after a while. The game is fun in short bursts but gets repetitive, and high levels demand a precision the controls do not support.
