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 casual, repetitive clicker/grinder in a mafia-themed massively multiplayer text RPG.

What players say

Players compare it favorably to Mafia Wars or Torn, but say it has a steep learning curve and crashes frequently. The energy system is restrictive and spending money helps, though some say you can compete without paying.
