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 neon-drenched, tension-filled romp through 80s crime where every cautious step could land you in cuffs or a payout.

What players say

Players praise the neon 80s setting but widely agree the police AI is overly aggressive, making early progress frustrating. The game is seen as promising but unfinished, with no controller support or key remapping, and reviewers are split on whether it is fun or too punishing in its current early-access state.
