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, unforgiving FPS with limited resources and no hand-holding, where every rocket shot and close encounter with scarecrow enemies feels tense and high-stakes.

What players say

Players are split on this survival FPS. Some enjoy its old-school challenge and creepy atmosphere, while many criticize one-hit kills from silent enemies and a stamina system that is not clearly indicated. The game currently has only one playable mode and runs often last under a minute.
