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 VR puzzle game with a funny, sarcastic narrator guiding you through challenging labyrinthine rooms.

What players say

Players consistently complain that the game does not use tracked motion controllers, relying instead on gaze aiming and button clicks. The puzzles are described as too simple and repetitive, with a narrator many find unfunny. A few players find it fun despite the controls, but most feel it is too basic and disappointing.
