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 frantic, arcade-style experience where you navigate a procedurally generated tunnel in VR, dodging surfaces to the beat of a standout soundtrack.

What players say

Players say the game is an endless runner with elemental levels, but many report it stopped working after 2017 and never received a fix from the developer. Opinions are split on whether it is worth the price.
