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

You carefully balance jobs and supplies while defending your cube-styled camp from the infected, a slow-burn management puzzle under pressure.

What players say

Players are split on Project Apocalypse: some call it a nice relaxed colony sim with a charming cubic look, while others say it is too easy and repetitive. Many point to the lack of automatic production for food and water as a chore, and the game is described as very basic and short on content. The developer's ongoing communication and updates are a consistent bright spot.
