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 slow-paced, methodical driving experience through rugged landscapes, focused on realistic truck handling and cargo delivery.

What players say

Players are split: some praise it as a challenging off-road crawling sim, but most slam it for poor performance, abandoned development, and lack of basic controller or wheel support. Many compare it unfavorably to MudRunner or SnowRunner.
