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, slightly silly arcade platformer where you race against time and pests to deliver a meal, with lighthearted stakes and retro energy.

What players say

Players compare Castle Clamber to Bubble Bobble, with some calling it a faithful homage and others a buggy clone. They praise the huge number of levels and tight feel, but several report a frustrating control bug where the character keeps moving, and note the multiplayer is local-only.
