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 bright, rhythmic collection of mini-games that feel like a joyful, beat-driven pick-me-up.

What players say

Players love its charm and animation, but widely agree it is very short, most finish in two to three hours, and wish for more minigames. Many call it a solid Rhythm Heaven homage that lacks its inspiration's quantity and difficulty curve. The final remix disappoints some. Workshop support and an active community are praised as major longevity boosts.
