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 tactical World War II commando shooter that emphasizes stealth, careful planning, and tense firefights through sweltering jungle environments.

What players say

Players call this a janky and low-budget tactical shooter that relies heavily on nostalgia. The AI is consistently criticized as moronic and the pathfinding as some of the worst, often requiring players to manually guide each squadmate. Performance requires tinkering with settings, and maps are described as too big and empty.
