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 casual, mildly tense side-scrolling game where you frantically chase a moving delete button across computers to stave off a virus.

What players say

Players describe it as a simple arcade game where you run between computers deleting viruses that re-infect machines. Many call it an obvious asset flip made with basic RPG Maker assets, offering maybe 5-10 minutes of content before boredom sets in. Some find the music okay but repetitive, and nearly everyone says the price is far too high for what little there is.
