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 slow-burn sci-fi survival game where you rebuild civilization from scratch, switching between peaceful base-building and tense PvP depending on the server.

What players say

Players describe it as a topdown survival game similar to Rust but simpler. Multiplayer is dead and mod support is no longer active. Reviews warn that singleplayer mode requires an internet connection to sign in, and some report performance issues on local servers. Players split on the endgame: some enjoy the progression, others find the world empty and unrewarding.
