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 high-energy, beat-matching roller coaster ride where timing and rhythm create a thrilling, immersive experience.

What players say

Players warn this is an old, abandoned port with poor performance, no sound for some users, and obnoxious DLC pricing. The slide notes are awkward on keyboard, and most recommend the Switch version Wai Wai Party instead.
