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 relentless, punishing climb where every mistake sends you plummeting back down, testing your patience and determination with tight controls and scarce resources.

What players say

Players say the game is brutally hard and designed to test patience. A key complaint is that fails send you to a fixed checkpoint, making falls feel repetitive regardless of where you slipped.
