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
You manage a space station as an AI, balancing resources and survival in a methodical, atmospheric sandbox with consequences for every decision.

What players say
Players report the game was abandoned after the developer's divorce, with no updates or communication for over a year. Some praise the building and atmosphere, but crashes, save corruption, and freezing are frequent complaints. A few say it improved after the developer returned, but most still cannot recommend it.
