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 playful VR bowling game where a chatty elf character adds a layer of whimsy to the straightforward sports simulation.

What players say

Players say it is a very simple VR bowling game with a holiday theme, but the lack of content is a common complaint: only five lanes, no online multiplayer, and only teleport movement. It runs very well on low-end hardware and is best suited as a party game, though some found the controls janky and the lack of a ball hook disappointing.
