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 thoughtful, slow-paced journey through a bleak Soviet wasteland, where careful exploration and dialogue replace frantic action.

What players say

Players call it a love letter to classic Fallout built around a post-Soviet setting. The writing and quest design are praised, but the companion AI frustrates and strength of weapons is tied to random encounters. The early game is a tough wall that rewards persistence.
