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 desperate scramble through a hostile maze where every step could be your last, forcing you to scavenge and run with friends to stave off unseen predators.

What players say

Players enjoy the tense co-op exploration despite heavy jank, especially from the cart physics that scatter items on any collision. The procedural maze keeps runs unpredictable, but many wish it were longer and say bosses are poorly balanced for solo play.
