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 no-frills licensed truck racing experience that prioritizes weighty, grounded physics over arcade thrills, moving at a deliberate pace through official circuits of the 2002 season.

About

Developed by the same team responsible for the MTV Music Generator series, Super Trucks Racing is a truck-based driving title that offers every official Super Trucks driver, sponsor, circuit, logo, and locations from the 2002 season. Its most renowned feature, however, is likely its physics engine; which is definitely among the most realistic of the time.
