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.

What players say

Players are split on Operation: Harsh Doorstop. Some enjoy it as a free tactical shooter with mods, but many say movement is clunky, maps feel unpolished, and the playerbase is tiny. Regulars note development has been slow for years and the lead developer's behavior draws criticism from negative reviews.
