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 quick, playfully competitive action game with satisfying, responsive controls and a casual run-based structure.

What players say

Players praise the $5 price and nostalgic beyblade feel, but a split stands on length and balance. Many finish a run in 10 to 30 minutes and ask for an endless mode or more depth, while a few call the pacing fair for the cost. Combat leans on a powercube mechanic some say can win the game on a first try, and certain part combos outclass the rest.
