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.

What players say

Players are split on SUR5. Some praise its free-to-play model and innovative deck-building mechanics, while others criticize the slow pace, RNG-heavy waste mechanic, and dead PvP. A few note early potential but ongoing updates through 2025 haven't resolved polish issues.
