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

Stepping into vast, serene wilderness to methodically track and harvest wildlife feels immersive, tranquil, and solitary.

What players say

Players are furious that Expansive Worlds is shutting down the servers in November 2024 with no offline mode, rendering all purchases worthless. Many who spent thousands of hours and real money feel betrayed, calling the decision greedy and comparing it unfavorably to the sequel.
