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 calming and methodical open-world driving experience where you manage routes and operate a variety of realistic buses at your own pace.

What players say

Players describe it as a relaxing simulator for zoning out, but they split on the controls: some find them satisfying, others report conflicting key bindings and unclear route instructions. The multiplayer is widely called broken due to constant desync, and performance issues with crashes or freezing frustrate people on both low-end and high-end hardware.
