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 gentle, crafty survival sandbox built from cardboard where you gather resources, fortify a town, and fend off goblins at night before mounting your own assault.

What players say
Players are split on Carton. Many praise its unique cardboard aesthetic and nostalgic, toy-like feel, while nearly as many report it is unoptimized, crashes, and has a terrible English translation.
