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 self-aware, comedic detective noir set in a dystopian future, heavy on exploration and full-motion video.

What players say
Players call this a time capsule of early 3D gaming, praising its humor, acting, and noir atmosphere. The controls are widely described as frustrating, with many recommending a community movement patch. Nostalgia is a big draw, but newcomers who persist often get hooked.
