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, retro-inspired zombie FPS where you scavenge through hostile landscapes to survive the apocalypse.

What players say

Most players say the game is broken, with zombies that get stuck or clip through walls and pose little threat. The shotgun is considered the only useful weapon, but one player enjoys the extreme difficulty of long, checkpoint-free levels.
