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 steadily tougher arcade run through dark pixel landscapes, collecting coins and dodging ghosts.

What players say

Players compare it to the Google Chrome dinosaur game, calling it a simple runner where you collect coins and dodge obstacles. Many note it is very short, with achievements obtainable in about ten minutes, and some wish for a volume control option.
