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, first-person puzzle adventure where you race against time to prevent a lab virus from escaping.

What players say

Players like the premise and graphics but are frustrated by bugs, a missing task list, and an annoying repeating contamination alert. Opinions split on difficulty: some find puzzles too easy, others unclear on what to do next. Many recommend it as a casual introduction to VR.
