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.

What players say

Players describe Alien Cat 8 as a simple retro platformer where you collect coins and run on walls and ceilings. It is short, takes about 15–20 minutes to complete, and some find the controls frustrating. Reviews are split on its value, with some calling it a browser game and others saying it is worth a low price.
