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 hands-off, methodical evolution sandbox where you watch simulated life adapt and change over time.

What players say
Players call this a well-conceived evolution simulator that was never finished and has not received an update in over three years. They agree it crashes constantly and has a serious memory leak, and the community is split between those who still love the janky, relaxing sandbox and those who feel abandoned.
