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 deceptively cruel golf sim that traps you in a hazy, inescapable loop of physics-based shots and mounting dread.

What players say

Players describe a deliberately awkward control scheme that becomes rewarding with practice, wrapped around a nine hole course and challenge set with rewards for creative shots. It gets compared to Windows 95 era golf games and PGA 2K for its physics. Many call it very hard, and a few want more courses for free play and a way to skip the zoom-out animation on retries.
