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 breezy arcade pinball game with a quirky fantasy JRPG setting where you knock the ball into enemies to rack up points.

What players say

Players call this a shallow pinball with RPG window dressing: leveling only boosts score, there is no way to nudge the table, and monster respawns make progress feel repetitive. The art is praised and the physics are okay, but many say it is not worth full price and the lack of control options frustrates.
