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 praise the adventure editor for its depth, allowing for branching stories and custom content, but the built-in story is often called linear and short. Opinions split on combat: some enjoy the D&D-style fights while others find them random and poorly explained. The two included scenarios serve as examples, but the game's long-term value depends on the community's workshop contributions.
