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.

A methodical, fantasy-themed adventure where you explore dimly lit castle and catacomb levels while using magic to outwit demonic enemies and collect items.

What players say

Players describe Demonlisher as a Pac-Man clone with shooting, but its ugly 3D isometric graphics, long loading times, and stiff controls make it a chore to play. Reviews split on whether the odd gameplay is worth the 50-cent price tag.
