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 quick, cartoony arcade hockey game that feels like a chaotic, lighthearted tabletop match with friends.

What players say

Players call this a fun arcade hockey game that scratches the NHL 94 itch on PC. The career mode is a highlight, but multiple reviews warn that the goalie AI is broken and the mouse and keyboard controls are poor. The developer is praised for being responsive to feedback.
