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 deeply realistic, technically demanding sandbox where every ship design and orbital maneuver is grounded in real physics, rewarding careful planning over fast reflexes.

What players say
Players love the hard sci-fi realism and detailed orbital mechanics, but warn the game has had no updates since 2018 and is effectively dead. It has a steep learning curve and is best for engineers and space nerds.
