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 immersive survival walking simulator where careful planning and resilience are tested against harsh, unpredictable mountain conditions.

What players say

Players are split on this climbing game. Some praise its realistic graphics and resource management, but many more call it a cash grab with only six mountains, clunky mechanics, and game-breaking bugs that were never patched. The climbing feels tedious and lacks the freedom of real mountaineering.
