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 chaotic, arcade-style shoot-em-up where you control a tank through randomly generated levels with a blur-eyed permadeath mode.

What players say

Players say POBEDA is a bare-bones arcade tank shooter with only left-right mouse controls, no keyboard or controller support, and a single enemy type. Many call it shovelware made just for Steam trading cards, while a few enjoy its absurdist retro charm. Reviews are split between those who find it amusingly minimal and those who call it a waste.
