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.

A first-person survival puzzle game with a cartoony horror aesthetic, where you manage radiation and supplies while fighting monsters.

What players say

Players are split on this zombie FPS built in GameGuru. Some praise the story and art style, others slam it as an asset flip with ugly graphics and thick AI. The game is longer than it appears and requires reading notes for the story, but can be punishing without cheats.
