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 straightforward action romp through zombie-infested swamps and ruins with a lone hero on a linear rescue mission.

What players say

Players say the pixel art and absurd zombie-shooting premise are charming, but control is unchangeable and the spacebar is used for pause, which many find unintuitive. The game has game-crashing bugs that make it unplayable for some, and needing to restart from the beginning after dying frustrates others. The difficulty is uneven, with easy and brutally hard sections.
