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 tense and immersive submarine simulation where you methodically hunt or evade in a realistic WWII underwater environment.

What players say

Players call it the gold standard for submarine sims, demanding patience and crew management. It is a very difficult game, and some report it crashes on Windows 11.
