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 fast-paced action platformer where you play as a maiden with a bow, balancing cute visuals with challenging levels and a mysterious invasion of cursed slimes.

What players say

Players enjoy the duo mechanic of a young archer and her grandmother, who can float but not attack. The platforming is precise but can get frustrating, with hidden stars for completionists and a slow start. Reviews note the controls are tight and the game mixes puzzles with light combat.
