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 tense, methodical VR flight simulation where you pilot a Lancaster bomber on a famous WWII mission, focusing on precision flying and bombing rather than arcade action.

What players say

Players are split on this VR Dambuster raid. Those who enjoy the arcade action find it challenging and atmospheric, but many more say it is very short, full of visual bugs like planes clipping through obstacles, and far lower in production quality than the same developer's Apollo 11 or Titanic VR. Several reviewers could not even get past the map room or get the controls to work.
