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 fast-paced arcade brick breaker where you defend a ball in 3D space, blending physics and puzzle logic with a retro, colorful feel.

What players say

Players say ANOIX is a cheap 3D take on Breakout that gets repetitive fast. The graphics are widely called ugly and the menu is described as seizure-inducing, but the simple loop of hitting blocks on a rotating board has its fans who call it polished.
