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, relentless arena shooter where you must slice through endless demon hordes with a single sawblade, but the extreme difficulty and lack of movement options make every second a tense battle for survival.

What players say

Players say CrimSaw is a stripped-down, fast-paced arena shooter that feels like Devil Daggers with a chainsaw. Opinions split on content: many enjoy the addictive high-score chase, while others wish there was more to do past the steep difficulty spike around the 4-minute mark.
