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 calm, hands-on sandbox where you build and explore miniature worlds in virtual reality at your own pace.

What players say

Players treat this as a VR diorama builder rather than a game. They praise the huge library of detailed models and the way character joints can be individually posed, but consistently warn that the controls and menu are unintuitive and lack any tutorial. Opinion splits on value: some call it an addictive creative tool, while others call it a plagiarized asset flip.
