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 claustrophobic, dread-filled survival horror experience in a decaying rural mansion, where every creak and groan intensifies the ever-present threat.

What players say

Players say Resident Evil 7 brings the series back to survival horror with a terrifying first-person perspective and the unforgettable Baker family estate. The tension and resource management are praised, though many find the ship section near the end dull and the gunplay clunky.
