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 dry, step-by-step virtual training simulation focused on mastering laboratory safety protocols with no sense of urgency or fun.

What players say

Players call it a practical, free VR training for biosafety cabinets that takes about 30 to 85 minutes. It teaches proper lab procedures through guided practice and a test, but some find locomotion awkward and note occasional bugs, especially on Oculus Rift.
