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

Playing Sports Bar VR feels like hanging out with friends in a virtual pub, casually shooting pool and throwing darts with realistic, satisfying physics.

What players say

Players say the pool physics feel nearly real and the social multiplayer creates a genuine bar hangout, though some find the controls frustrating on the Valve Index and report a dead online community. Fans split on atmosphere and wish for features like spectator mode and doubles play.
