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 tense and gritty struggle to salvage resources and rebuild in a decaying world, where loss is constant and survival is a relentless grind.

What players say

Players praise the solo and co-op PvE extraction loop, calling it a more casual alternative to Tarkov with a satisfying body-part harvesting system. Opinions split on the mission timer and AI difficulty, with some finding the bots aimbot-accurate and others appreciating the challenge.
