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

You coordinate a squad of class-based agents through a neon-drenched cyberpunk city, balancing stealth, firepower, and real-time tactics alone or with friends.

What players say

Players seeking a Syndicate fix are split: some say it scratches that itch, while others find it has little in common with the classic. The cyberpunk aesthetic is praised, but the game also draws complaints about repetitive gameplay, easy exploits, and poor performance.
