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 sprawling, ambitious space sandbox where you carve your own path through galaxy-spanning exploration, combat, and empire-building, though still rough around the edges.

What players say

Players say SpaceBourne 2 is an ambitious single-developer space sim that scratches the Mass Effect itch, but it is held back by game-breaking bugs, a confusing UI, and a general lack of polish. Many feel the game was released too early and development stalled after launch.
