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 lighthearted side-scrolling brawler with cute cartoon visuals and silly characters, focusing on satisfying combat and exploration through a bizarre dreamlike world.

What players say

Players compare it to Castle Crashers but note it is a single-player beat 'em up with RPG elements. The fun combat and humor are praised, though many warn the game feels abandoned with no updates, has unchangeable controls, and lacks basic settings like a sound slider.
