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.

What players say

Players who love handball appreciate the deep customization, league editor, and multiple throw types, but they are split on the execution. Many say the controls feel clumsy, the animations are stiff, and the graphics are dated, while others find the core gameplay solid for the price. A few compare it favorably to Big Ben handball titles, citing the developer's willingness to update.
