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 deliberate, immersive cyberpunk stealth-RPG where you carefully navigate a divided near-future, balancing augmentation, choice, and conspiracy.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere, music, and freedom of choice in Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director's Cut. However, many report performance problems like stuttering and crashes, and opinions split on the ending, which some find underwhelming. The Director's Cut improves boss fights but is otherwise similar to the original.
