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 gleefully absurd, anything-goes romp through an alien-controlled simulation, played for laughs.

About

Saints Row IV is an open-world action-adventure game with third-person shooter combat and a heavy science fiction and comedy bent. It is the fourth main entry in the Saints Row series and the last of the original storyline. Players freely explore a simulated version of the city of Steelport, taking on story missions and side activities, and gain superpowers such as super speed, high jumps, and elemental attacks that reshape how they move and fight. The player character is highly customizable, and a two-player cooperative mode is supported.
