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

Piloting a stealth ship through a retro-styled open universe, engaging in intense dogfights and upgrading your vessel for high-stakes revenge.

What players say

Players praise it as a loving tribute to 90s space sims like Frontier: Elite 2, with a surprisingly strong story and British sci-fi charm. But they also warn it is a short, linear quest with no trading or mining, and opinion is split on whether the clunky controls and lack of depth are dealbreakers.
