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

a quiet, isolating simulation of enduring a frozen wasteland where every decision feels deliberate and precarious.

What players say

Players are split on this FMV zombie adventure. Many enjoy the cast and real-world locations, but others slam the dice-rolling combat where a failed roll means instant game over. Complaints are loud about a short runtime, AI-generated visuals, and weak writing, while some call it a fun, goofy experience.
