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 quirky, text-driven adventure where you click through absurd choices to help characters thwart an orderly invasion.

What players say

Players are split on Durka Simulator: some call it a funny meme game good for an evening, others find it boring or worry it will rot their brain. It is a short visual novel that can be 100% completed in about an hour, but only in Russian as of late 2023, and one player achieved full completion by changing the system date.
