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, survival-focused first-person shooter where you frantically defend against zombie hordes in a gritty WWII setting.

What players say

Players see this as a cheap, nostalgic knockoff of classic Call of Duty Zombies, but they split on whether it is worth playing. Many complain it is clunky and lacks online multiplayer, while others find it fun for a casual hour. Several ask for more maps and better controls.
