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 first-person shooter with jump scares and a campy, low-budget horror tone as you fight evil clowns in Kentucky.

What players say

Players are split on this GameGuru FPS tie-in to the Clown Nightmare film. It's very short, about 90 minutes, and has a low $3 price, but some find the enemy AI, sound and textures terrible, and say you can just run past enemies to beat each level. Others enjoy the humor and cameos for fans of the movie series.
