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

Blasting through swarms of enemies in VR feels like a chaotic, high-intensity arcade shooter with relentless incoming fire and constant dodging.

What players say

A promotional VR tower defense shooter for MSI that players find fun for a while but repetitive, often comparing it to a minigame in The Lab. It's free, so opinions are forgiving, though some call it a laggy tech demo.
