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

You wrestle with deep mud and rickety bridges in first-person VR, slowly and deliberately navigating treacherous terrain vehicle by vehicle.

What players say

Players are split on MudRunner VR. Some find it a meditative, immersive driving sim that makes the flat version feel shallow, but many more report broken controls, especially steering that snaps the wrong way and an e-brake that jams. Performance is widely criticized with freezes, crashes, and black screens inside the cabin, and the lack of steering wheel support frustrates longtime fans.
