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 straightforward retro action-platformer where you navigate labyrinthine catacombs, fight illusionary creatures, and collect shapes to progress.

What players say
Players are overwhelmingly nostalgic for a 1985 original, not the Steam version itself. Many admit they still have no idea what the game is about without a guide, and several note the small play screen and sparse sound as disappointments.
