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 slow, claustrophobic power fantasy where you and your squad methodically purge hordes of alien horrors in tight, gothic corridors.

What players say

Players praise the claustrophobic atmosphere and the feeling of being a Terminator in Warhammer 40K, but they are split on the gameplay. Many find the combat slow and repetitive with bad AI, and the game suffers from technical problems like high GPU usage and crashes. The story is considered minimal and the ending is underwhelming, while multiplayer is reportedly low on players.
