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

An open world pirate adventure where you freely sail, explore handcrafted islands, and survive by crafting, fishing, and following a story at your own pace.

What players say

Players seeking a casual, single-player sailing experience enjoy the ship-as-base system and sextant navigation, but the game is widely criticized for broken co-op multiplayer that forces all players together, no ship-to-ship combat, and performance issues even on strong hardware. The graphics are often called dated and basic.
