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
You scavenge and build to survive an alien wilderness where every creature sees you as prey.

What players say
Players call this an ambitious but abandoned survival game that feels like a land-based Subnautica. It has a compelling alien world and a roughly 20-hour story, but controls are buggy, the bow aiming is poor, and development stopped in 2016.
