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 precision-driven 2D motorbike game that feels rewarding yet punishing as you master each tricky track.

What players say

Players call this a cult classic and praise it as a faithful revival for nostalgic fans. Many note the physics are quirky and the controls take getting used to, with some calling it the Dark Souls of bike games for its frustrating difficulty. The game supports split-screen co-op, a feature not present in the sequel.
