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 feels tense and precise, with a focus on mastering realistic physics in competitive online drift battles.

What players say

Players say RDS was abandoned early, with updates and support stopped while features like VR and cockpit view remain missing. The physics split players, some call it arcadey and soapy, while others enjoy it as a lightweight drift game for weaker PCs. Online is dead, and many feel it is overpriced for what it offers.
