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

You design clunky steampunk vehicles then pit them against aggressive machines in a chaotic sandbox.

What players say

Players describe Steampunk Genius as a free sandbox construction kit for building steampunk vehicles, not a game with objectives. Creative players enjoy the building, but many note it feels incomplete, has a confusing UI, low-resolution art, and glitches.
