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 cooperative 2D isometric survival game where you scavenge, craft, and manage health and food with thousands of other players in a zombie-filled post-apocalyptic world.

What players say

Players praise the addictive gameplay and decent story, but consistently note the game is abandoned with no updates and a dead multiplayer. They also struggle with a lack of guidance or map and unexpected difficulty spikes.
