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 tense, top-down survival struggle where every hunger, thirst, and injury must be managed while scavenging a procedurally generated Martian colony.

What players say
Players are split on Subterrain. Many praise its oppressive atmosphere and deep interlocking survival systems, but just as many find it tedious due to excessive backtracking, grindy research, and poor inventory management. The single save slot and punishing time pressure force restarting on mistakes, and players note the developer abandoned it without post-launch support.
