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 top-down combat racer where you blast opponents while speeding toward the finish line.

What players say

Players say this remake of the 1996 classic is a decent but flawed arcade racer held back by RNG-dependent races, odd physics, and a grindy progression system. Races are very short, often under a minute, and achievements demand dozens of hours. Some report save file corruption wiping all progress.
