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 arcade-style defense game where you must precisely aim and fire arrows from castle towers, teleporting between positions while managing increasingly aggressive enemy waves.

What players say

Players describe it as a short, simple archery wave shooter with only one level, one enemy type, and three spawn points. Most say the bow feels decent but the game lacks depth, leaderboards, and variety, with a few noting it struggles on Oculus hardware.
