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 methodical, tense reimagining of Battleship where you physically survey the pool and launch missiles in an industrial setting, feeling both strategic and immersive.

What players say

Players say the game is a straightforward Battleship adaptation with VR support and crossplay. They warn it requires an Epic Games account, and split on its value: some enjoy the relaxed solo experience, while others find it lacking modes and basic menu options in its early access state.
