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

Swordsman VR feels like a physically demanding and strategic duel simulator where every swing, parry, and dodge must be deliberate and precise.

What players say

Players compare it unfavorably to Blade and Sorcery, calling it a worse version. The PC version has been abandoned for years while the developer works on the standalone version. Some praise the sword collision and AI, but others find the physics janky and the gameplay loop repetitive.
