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 chill driving job with a growing sense of deadline pressure to meet weekly payment goals.

What players say

Players praise the original concept of driving in a city with NPCs that follow traffic rules, but many note the game is still rough in early access with bugs, performance lag, and limited vehicle selection. Opinions split on whether the physics feel fine for casual play or disappointing for hardcore sim racers.
