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.

What players say

Players describe the game as unplayable: multiplayer is empty, forcing bot matches, and the handling is widely mocked, with steering called twitchy and cars feeling like they slide too easily. The game charges an entry fee yet still has aggressive microtransactions and multiple currencies, which players find exploitative, and many suspect development was abandoned.
