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 desperate, tense struggle to scavenge and survive amidst colossal, indifferent war machines on a chaotic, ever-shifting battlefield.

What players say

Players are split on The Forever Winter. Many praise its striking art and oppressive atmosphere, but nearly all agree the gameplay is janky, buggy, and unfair, with endless enemy spawns, bad AI, and punishing design choices. Some enjoy the vision despite the flaws, others say the developer's priorities are misguided and the game is too raw to recommend.
