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, team-focused World War II shooter with realistic combat and a gritty atmosphere.

What players say

Players call it a raw, tactical WW2 shooter blending Team Fortress class-based play with Counter-Strike's precision. The community is small but passionate, though new players face a brutal learning curve against long-time veterans, and finding populated servers outside Europe or North America is tough.
