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

Diving and lunging to block rapid shots in a chaotic, exaggerated soccer simulation.

What players say

Players praise the immersive arena atmosphere and responsive tracking, and many enjoy the asymmetric mode where friends shoot via smartphones. The game is physically demanding, with several people needing knee pads, and reviews agree it is very hard, especially for older players. Some find it too bare in content, and a few note the lack of a visual cue for where the shooter aims.
