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 chaotic, fast-paced arena shooter where each round you pick an upgrade to counter and surprise your opponents.

What players say

Players are split: some call it a fun deck-building shooter with friends, others say the multiplayer is dead because the paid DLC splits the playerbase and only the host needs it. Skills feel unbalanced and matches can be frustrating.
