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 physics-heavy arcade soccer free kick game with precise orb control, competitive leaderboards, and a focus on skill-based scoring.

What players say

Players praise the ball physics and free-kick mechanics as better than big-budget sports games, but the online multiplayer is deserted and matchmaking takes hours. Single player challenges remain enjoyable.
