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 methodical, skill-focused robot brawler where you craft and perfect your own fighting style against other players.

What players say

Players praise the creative robot-building concept but say the game is abandoned and the online is broken. Matches are against overpowered bots because few humans remain, and custom controls are difficult to use. Friends cannot connect for private matches, leaving the intended fun unrealized.
