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 say THE GAME OF LIFE 2 is fun for a few rounds with friends but gets repetitive quickly. A common complaint is that all the DLC boards are mechanically identical to the base game, just with different skins. The game is heavily luck-based with no skill involved, and the long, unskippable AI animations that reset the speed setting frustrate solo players.
