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 rapid-fire bullet hell where you guide your cursor through waves of enemies in randomly generated dungeons, testing your reflexes and decision-making in quick, intense rounds.

What players say
Players love the nostalgic Windows 98 aesthetic and find the first hours fun with many unlocks, but note the gameplay becomes repetitive and single-target weapons are weak compared to AoE. Once you beat all levels, late-game incentive drops off, and the card game can trivialize money.
