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 frantic, gritty first-person shooter blending trench warfare with supernatural horror, where combat is fast and the atmosphere is grim and bloody.

What players say

Players are split on NecroVision. Some enjoy its absurd, escalating story and find the combat system redeemable, while others find the game poorly put together with clunky gunplay. Many agree the second half becomes a slog with bullet sponge enemies, and the game is rough and glitchy, a product of its era.
