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

You juggle station management and light action in a straightforward crime-fighting simulation, more about strategic decisions than visceral thrills.

What players say

Players say the released version is full of bugs: officers freeze on patrol, get stuck on fences, and lose missions with high success rates, sometimes forcing reloads. Many call the core loop shallow, mostly grinding money for about eight hours, and note that scenes shown in the trailer are not in the game. A few long-time players enjoy it and expect post-launch fixes.
