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

You feel like a calm mission controller, carefully plotting trajectories through the solar system with a sense of awe and quiet satisfaction.

What players say

Players describe this as a casual arcade take on Kerbal-style spaceflight, where the goal is to linger in gravity wells to collect data rather than land. The ideal trajectories can be counterintuitive, and players say a notepad helps for high scores. Some note it originally appeared on Windows Phone under the name Voyager: Grand Tour and feel the mobile version may be the better platform.
