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 fast-paced, whimsical ski-jumping sandbox where you race downhill and dodge a Yeti while chasing leaderboard scores.

What players say

Players praise the skiing locomotion as fun and say it is a great VR showcase for short bursts, but many find the game very barebones with little to do after 15-30 minutes. Reviews split on motion sickness, with some saying it is fine and others reporting it is worse than in other VR games.
