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 physically intense VR duel where you frantically dodge slow-motion projectiles while carefully aiming your own shots.

What players say

Players love the core VR gun-dueling concept and say it makes for a great workout, but they report the game is nearly dead online and matchmaking pits new players against veterans who dominate instantly. Some say the forced lobby interaction with toxic kids is a problem, while others recommend sticking to PvE or playing with a buddy.
