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

It is a charming and light-hearted co-op adventure about accidental explorers navigating procedurally generated levels with a relaxed, playful rhythm.

What players say

Players consistently call this a Spelunky spin that is less punishing but still tough in places. The local co-op is fun, but the AI partner in solo is widely disliked, and the second boss stops most players cold. There is no online multiplayer, which some players lament.
