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 straightforward first-person shooter where you, as a cyborg, methodically blast through zombie hordes in a sci-fi survival scenario.

What players say

Players describe this as an amateurish Unity game from a single developer, riddled with bugs and broken mechanics. The trash-sorting minigame is painfully slow, and you may not even play as a cyborg without paying in-game currency.
