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

You bike around an open world, humorously ticketing parking violations with a smartphone to beat a highscore.

What players say

Players enjoy the humor and find the core idea fun, but many criticize the small map, the sluggish bicycle controls, and a lack of features. Performance issues and a grindy unlock system are common complaints, though the low price and active early access updates win goodwill.
