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

You control a car with legs, zipping through absurdly varied levels that feel like a playful, chaotic sandbox where anything unexpected can happen.

What players say

Players praise its absurd humor and variety of car-based gimmicks, but many find it weaker than What the Golf. Split opinions: some love the community level editor and daily challenges, others complain about repetitive driving between short levels and frustrating time trials for gold crowns.
