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 gentle mix of exploration, base-building, and creature-caretaking in a dreamlike, slightly eerie open world.

What players say

Players enjoy the survival-building and Drake care, but the fun is undercut by crashes that delete progress, non-renewable resources that make raids devastating, and a grind that feels punishing rather than rewarding. Many think the concept is good but the execution falls short.
