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 fast, arcade-style sports game that puts you on a hoverbike, using a hook gun to score goals in a futuristic arena.

What players say

Players call it Rocket League in VR but with a grappling hook to grab and shoot the ball. The 2v2 multiplayer is dead, so you are stuck playing against bots which gets boring quickly. Many report motion sickness despite the seated experience.
