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 punishing third-person sword-fighting game with a dark cyberpunk atmosphere and a focus on revenge.

What players say

Players say combat is broken by unresponsive controls, a non-functional block, and overly long animations that leave you open to attacks. Levels are confusing, enemies are skippable, and the 19 GB install seems wasted on what many finish in under 15 minutes.
