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.

a gritty survival game where you constantly balance gathering resources and building shelter while wary of other players who can ambush and take your loot.

What players say

Players agree Veritex is an abandoned asset flip with dead multiplayer. Reviews cite buggy mechanics like broken inventory weight and building placement. A few call it funny in its badness, others just warn to skip it.
