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 goofy, blood-soaked romp where you chainsaw through monsters with a wisecracking undead sidekick, never taking itself too seriously.

About

Evil Dead: Regeneration takes over where the film Evil Dead 2 left off. You can play as Ash, who has been committed to an insane asylum where a mad scientist is doing experiments with the Necronomican. With the help of some firepower and your new sidekick, a 3-foot tall "deadite," you can battle the scientist's unholy creations and save civilization.

What players say

A gleefully campy, gore-soaked action romp packed with Bruce Campbell one-liners and Ash-and-Sam banter that fans of the films love. Hacking limbs off Deadites is messy fun, and it captures the schlocky B-movie spirit of the series.
