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 colorful and casual roguelike pool game where wacky ball effects and strategic build-crafting lead to playful, tricky shots in an always-open bar setting.

What players say

Players liken Ultrapool to a Balatro-style roguelike built around pool, with ball mixing and unlocking new sets as the draw. Many enjoy the combo and economy decisions, but sentiment splits on polish: some call it boring or too slow, and PC players complain about the mobile-first portrait layout, missing music, and lack of cloud saves.
