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 tense and frantic runner where every second counts as you dodge obstacles and manage a bomb collar with darkly comedic overtones.

What players say

Players say this is a fast and punishing runner where memorizing trap patterns is key. The time limit and slow-motion death effect keep the pressure on, but the first level is much harder than the rest. Some players struggle with keyboard controls and wish for controller support.
