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

ReFramed feels like a relentless, bullet-spraying fight for survival against hordes of infected in a dark, claustrophobic space station.

What players say

Players are split on Reframed. Some enjoy the story, atmosphere, and old-school FPS horror feel, but most agree the gunplay is broken: weapons are inaccurate, the sniper scope is a joke, and shotguns miss at close range. The game forces close-quarters combat with checkpoint-only saves and enemies that close distance fast.
