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 chaotic, silly soccer management game where you use absurd power-ups to cheat your way to victory.

What players say

Players describe FootLOL as a chaotic mix of soccer and real-time ability spam, fun for an hour or two before the novelty fades. Some praise the absurd humor with cows and airstrikes, but many warn the campaign requires grinding 6-10 hours to unlock skills for online play, and the active multiplayer is dead.
