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 tense, methodical struggle to survive in a hostile world where every decision feels weighted and resources are scarce.

What players say

Players say it is a short, brutally difficult tactical RPG that introduces new concepts gradually. The setting feels eerily prescient about Russia, and while the controls are clunky and bugs remain unpatched, loyal fans praise the atmosphere and gameplay for those willing to persist.
