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

Like piloting a customizable ship through a chaotic, colorful bullet hell, blasting alien swarms and space pirates in a frantic arcade-style fight for survival.

What players say

Players describe Antiprism as a decent VR shoot 'em up with fluid aiming and a satisfying upgrade system, but many find the campaign too short and the early weapons too slow. It draws frequent comparisons to Valve's free Xortex minigame, with some saying it never surpasses that experience. The enemy movement is called stiff, and opinions split on whether the price matches the content.
