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 Red Front is a simple arcade tank shooter that is harder than it looks, with frequent complaints about the RPG soldiers and the difficulty of seeing enemies before they shoot. Reviews are split on whether the rough edges add challenge or just frustration.
