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

A slow-paced, methodical top-down shooter that emphasizes strategic survival through inventory management and perilous Zone exploration.

What players say

Players call this a top-down STALKER lite, praising its atmosphere and balance but noting small maps, janky movement, and a short campaign. Moral choices and reputation systems feel shallow. Anomalies can instantly kill you, and quests require reading notes since there are no markers. Development by one person is seen as impressive yet flawed.
