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

You step into a faithful recreation of a historic space mission, guided by archival footage and music, feeling awestruck and quietly reflective.

What players say

Players consistently report that the game is broken on many modern VR headsets, especially the Valve Index, with black screens making it unplayable. The developer appears to have abandoned it years ago. When it works, it is a short, educational ride along the Apollo 11 mission, but the widespread technical issues make it impossible to recommend.
