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

Driving, looting, and shooting through a procedurally generated road trip with a playful, quirky tone.

What players say

Players compare it to The Long Drive but find it simpler and more action-packed. The ability to shrink and collect buildings is a unique highlight. Opinions split on polish: some praise the regular updates and fun loop, while others report game-breaking save corruption after hundreds of kilometers. The grind for boss idols is criticized as luck-dependent and disrespectful of player time.
