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 strategic balancing act where you manage social and economic pressures while battling an outbreak.

What players say
Players like the concept but find the early access execution lacking, with redundant events and cities that feel identical aside from stats. A few also report an exploit where blocking all travel from day one wins the game in 25 days.
