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 chaotic arcade mashup where you frantically bounce and shoot bombs at castles with air-hockey physics and loud chanting.

What players say

Players say it is a short, simple arcade game that can be beaten in an hour or less, though it has an endless mode. It is fun in short bursts but quickly becomes repetitive, and experienced players will finish it on the first try.
