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 struggle to control a puppet through deathtrap obstacle courses, with every misstep fueling your rage and determination to master the chaos.

What players say

Players say this free VR game has a clever puppet-controlling idea but is too basic and clunky to enjoy, with bad visuals and limited content. Some call it a relaxing speedrun experience, while others say VarBlocks VR does it better.
