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 tense, squad-based shooter where you strategically fight intelligent robots in a futuristic Tokyo while building trust with your team.

What players say

Players call this a cheesy, fun shooter with great character banter and a satisfying limb-dismemberment mechanic, but almost everyone complains about the controls and the voice command system being finicky. The port is rough and requires tinkering just to get modern controllers working.
