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 relentless, retro arena shooter built for twitch reflexes and multiplayer chaos

What players say
Players call it Quake remade in the Half-Life engine, but the multiplayer is dead and finding a match takes effort. Those who gather friends or use bots still have fun, while others say buying Quake itself is the better choice.
