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 tense, fast-paced typing game where you frantically destroy meteors to save your starship and dragon, with a rock soundtrack driving the action.

What players say

Players describe Keyboard Killers as a simple reflex game where you smash keys to defend against meteors, but many find it boring and repetitive after a short while. The game is free and has good music, but players are split on whether it offers any real fun, and several note that the achievements force tedious grinding that encourages automation.
