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 fast, cartoonish wrestling sim that feels goofy and immediate, with simple controls masking deep, unpredictable matches.

What players say

Players love the chaotic open world and retro graphics, but are split on the random AI that can attack backstage or reverse every move, calling it both hilarious and frustrating.
