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 quirky, bittersweet journey through a surreal world, blending melancholy and humor as you reluctantly pursue sporting stardom across decades.

What players say

Players praise its surreal aesthetic and deeply human, emotionally heavy story about family and identity, with multiple endings and clever dialogue. A minority are disappointed that the sport in the title is never actually played.
