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 classic retro-style platformer with pixel graphics and a chiptune soundtrack, featuring running, jumping, swimming, and boss fights through large worlds.

What players say

Players call it a competent but simple Mario-style platformer that adds a double jump. Reviews note collectible stars, a boss per world, and nostalgia for the 3DS original. Some report screen tearing on larger displays.
