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 methodical military shooter with tactical realism and a high stakes permadeath option.

What players say

Players are sharply divided. Many call it a buggy, unoptimized mess with a simplistic AI and a controversial take on real-world conflicts. A smaller group of long-time players, however, praise the developer's regular updates and see a promising tactical shooter beneath the issues, comparing it to Ready or Not or Ground Branch.
