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

Scavenging and crafting in a ruined world while balancing the tension of deadly machines and the unpredictability of other survivors.

What players say

Players praise the core world and PvE but are fed up with rampant cheating, unbalanced lobbies, and a lack of endgame. Many say development stalled quickly, and the community is split on whether the PvP-focused direction ruined the game.
