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
You battle through a child's cardboard world with a sense of playful adventure and lighthearted discovery.

What players say
Players describe a short, unfinished experience with a charming cardboard art style and smooth combat, but the movement is janky and the world feels empty. Reviews note the hub has NPCs referencing a future release date, there is no save progression after bosses, and older machines may need manual graphics tweaks.
