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 serene yet tense survival experience where you gather resources, explore vast open landscapes and oceans, and customize characters at your own pace.

What players say

Players report an ambitious survival game buried under bugs and broken progression. Hunger and thirst drain so fast that exploring feels futile, many quests cannot be completed, and dying may force a hard crash. A few praise the island exploration and weather system, but most say the game is not ready for release.
