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

You float through eerie, shifting landscapes, frantically swinging your arms to punch glowing cubes before they erode reality itself.

What players say

Players praise the stylish visuals, comparing them to Journey, and call it one of the more polished VR wave-based games. It offers a good workout through active punching mechanics, though there is just one environment and no story, leaving players wanting more content.
