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 grim, zombie-infested military island shooter draped in horror-film atmosphere, where the dead rise and survival feels bleak from the start.

About

The master auteur of horror takes his chilling tales of the Living Dead to a new form in this videogame based on his film series. The game is set on the Island of Ningun Futuro (Spanish for No Future), located off the coast of North America. The island is home to a secret operation military base, whose primary role was to testing weapon effects on cadavers. When the dead begin to rise, Dr Rocane the head Pathologist, thinks it is Christmas. Due to financial difficulties at publisher Hip Interactive, this game fell off development and is not expected to be resurrected ... or become an undead videogame. While never announced, the game is expected to be completely cancelled.
