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.

What players say

Players describe a physical, fast-paced VR brawler that gets them sweating, but they split on polish: some praise the snappy combat and unique enemies, while others report black screens on launch, repetitive levels, and an unfinished feel. Long-time players note difficulty spikes with certain enemies.
