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 jokey but tense board-game-like turn-based strategy where gelatinous characters blow up power plants with shockwaves and lightning.

What players say
Players praise the clever campaign and humor, but split sharply on difficulty. Many call it punishing and note that the AI plays perfectly, forcing trial-and-error with no save feature and no way to skip dialogue on retry. A few call it boring or shallow, while others find it addictive and compare it to chess.
