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 darkly humorous, punishing precision platformer where you repeatedly die and retry, gradually improving through trial and error, with a silly medieval story and arcade-like simplicity.

What players say

Players say the sequel abandons the original's parkour focus for a story-driven game with poor optimization and physics. Many call it a disappointment, citing a short campaign that can be brute-forced in 3-4 hours and some report controller problems.
