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 hectic, lane-based brawler where you and friends hammer enemies with oversized weapons in cartoonish, arcade-style battles.

What players say

Players compare it to a budget Castle Crashers clone with fun couch co-op but shallow, repetitive combat and lane-based movement that can feel tedious. The soundtrack is praised, but the game is short with no DLC and online multiplayer is empty.
