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, retro FPS with frantic shooting and exploration in colorful 2.5D sci-fi corridors.

What players say

Players describe it as a competent Wolfenstein 3D clone with some improvements like a minimap, but note it feels dated and has tanky controls that only allow horizontal aiming. Many recommend using a source port for quality-of-life enhancements. Reviews highlight an obsession with secrets, as the game hides them several layers deep.
