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, goofy time-management chaos where you juggle monster customers and spells while everything constantly threatens to spiral out of control.

What players say

Players call it a competent Diner Dash clone with a Halloween theme and cute monster designs. The game is addictive and challenging on harder modes, but reviewers warn about very grindy achievements and a cliffhanger ending that never got a sequel.
