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

A silly and straightforward VR experience where you playfully hammer oversized voting booths to register cartoonish ballot choices.

What players say

A free VR whack-a-mole game with a 2016 election satire theme. Players say the experience is very short, gets boring after a few minutes, and collision detection is poor. Some appreciate the humor and variety of tools, while others find it too simple and buggy, with a broken sign-in form and glitchy audio.
