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-paced action shooter driven by creative gimmicks and classic arcade-style adventure.

What players say

Players describe it as a hidden-object shooter mixed with Tower of Druaga-style secrets, where finding hints through achievements is part of the fun. The pixel art and chiptune soundtrack are praised, but the difficulty spikes sharply after a deceptively easy start. Reviews note three difficulty levels and 18 stages.
