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 local co-op adventure where two players bicker and cooperate as a split wizard, blending melee and ranged attacks in real-time combat.

What players say

Players enjoy the short co-op experience but nearly all agree it is too brief, feeling more like a demo than a finished game. Reviewers praise it as fun with a friend and hope for a full release with more levels.
