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, silly arena brawler where you toss buckets at adorable plastic toys in a chaotic, cartoonish fight to be the last one standing.

What players say

Players call it a fun party game for groups, comparing it to Gang Beasts but simpler. It lacks online multiplayer and native online support, so remote play is required. Some find it unbalanced in 1v1 or repetitive with only one mechanic, and note development seems stalled.
