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 calm, methodical puzzle game where you design railway networks and manage locomotives to gradually build a rail empire.

What players say
Players call this a faithful remake of the classic DOS game Shortline, praising its nostalgic arcade train routing. The challenge comes from limited track placement and avoiding crashes, with a slow-motion button to help. A few note it still feels like early access, and some mention minor localization problems.
