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 describe it as a VR parkour game similar to Mirror's Edge that provides a good workout. The controls rely on hand gestures, but many report the jump and slide motions are easily confused, making the game frustrating. Some players also mention issues with controller drift or unresponsive buttons.
