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 silly, rhythm-like arcade challenge where you time punches and kicks to fend off friendly frogs with exaggerated physical comedy.

What players say

Players say it is brutally difficult, many comparing it to Dark Souls, with a disaster difficulty that pushes the challenge further. The humor comes from its absurd premise of a gorilla fighting happy frogs, though the fanbase leans heavily into meme-like reviews.
