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

You blast through dirt and rock at high speed, constantly gathering loot and upgrading your drill-gyrocopter to take on tougher underground biomes.

What players say

Players are split on Bore Blasters. Many love the satisfying destruction and synthwave soundtrack, calling it a soothing way to watch numbers go up. Others find it very repetitive, with identical runs from start to finish and a story that ends halfway through the missions.
