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.

About

Take control of your car, MAD X, and evade relentless enemy cars as you infiltrate the secret base of the evil Kanharoo Gang to recover all the stolen money.

This version also includes stages that were unreachable in the original 1985 release. Now’s your chance to beat the high scores you set back then!
