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

You drift silently through zero-gravity stations, solving puzzles and sneaking past alien threats in a lonely, dark corner of space.

What players say

Players split on this indie 3D puzzle game. Some enjoy the original mix of flying, stealth, and base capture, comparing it to Descent, while others find the puzzles confusing, the controls unchangeable, and the drone too slow. Several note dated graphics and occasional physics glitches.
