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, gore-soaked shooter that feels like a chaotic power fantasy fueled by rage and dark 90s nostalgia.

What players say

Players say the official Steam version barely runs without fan patches and third-party wrappers. Many call it a broken port that never got modern support, and a disappointing sequel that lacks the original's charm and tight gameplay. Some enjoy it as a janky relic with occasional Monolith humor, but most advise playing the first Blood or CULTIC instead.
