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 frantic top-down combat racer where you and up to eight players blast and cut each other off in high-speed, no-holds-barred matches.

What players say

Players call it a chaotic party racer best enjoyed with friends on the couch, comparing it to Rock 'n' Roll Racing. The action is simple and luck-heavy, with rubberbanding that keeps races close. Online play is reportedly empty. Some criticize the camera in first place and limited weapon variety, but the Death Race mode and progression through unlockable cars keep solo play engaging.
