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 tense, gory first-person shooter where you fight through zombie hordes while uncovering clues in a small-town outbreak.

What players say

Players are split on Z Mutants. Some find it a silly, cheap diversion for a few hours, but others call it a short asset flip with clunky menus, repetitive key-collecting levels, and an abrupt ending with no finale.
