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 say the game has a solid visual style and destructible environments, but are split on its quality. A recurring complaint is that hard mode and endless mode are listed but do not actually function, making some achievements impossible to earn. The game is seen as heavily co-op focused, with solo play described as frustratingly difficult from the very first level.
