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, methodical sniper simulation where careful aim and patience are rewarded with one-shot kills.

What players say

Players are split on Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2. Some praise the story and varied locations, while others find the campaign shallow and repetitive at around 5-6 hours. Reviews agree the sniping mechanics feel satisfying with the slow-motion bullet cam, but the game is heavily scripted with little freedom. Several note a crashing bug with night vision or binoculars as of mid-2026.
