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 this latest entry in The Test series feels shorter and simpler than earlier games, with little new content and an over-reliance on AI-generated assets. The empathetic writing still resonates for many, though some find the feedback too generic. Fans recommend starting with an older, stronger entry instead.
