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.

What players say

Players say the PC version is riddled with bugs, from invisible enemies to progress-blocking crashes, making it frequently unplayable. Fans of the original mobile game feel it fails to capture that experience, downgrading from an open world to linear missions with poor crew AI. A few hopeful players see potential if updates arrive, but most warn against buying the game in its current state.
