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 play as Stalin, casually signing papers and smoking a pipe in a absurdly funny and atmospheric simulation that shifts from relaxing tutorials to difficult challenges.

What players say

Players are split on this VR game: some find it a fun stress inducer, while others are held back by poor performance and bugs that have gone unfixed for years. Many also mention broken achievements.
