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
Tactical space combat that feels both exhilarating and oppressive, with each mission demanding precise maneuvering and quick reflexes against an unrelenting enemy.

What players say
Players call FreeSpace one of the greats of its genre, but the Steam version runs poorly on modern systems and often needs tweaks or community patches. Many recommend buying it elsewhere or using FreeSpace 2 with the FSPort mod instead.
