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 fast-paced VR arcade shooter with a whimsical, low-poly aesthetic and an absurd premise where you play a love-spreading zombie fighting fascist zombies.

What players say

Players call ZOLO a short, simple wave game with one map and few weapons. Punching zombies to knock them away feels imprecise and sometimes unsatisfying. The physical movement makes it work as a workout, and the low price gets a nod, but most agree it needs more content. Players are split on whether the current state is worth it.
