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.

What players say

Players split on EEP 17. Fans of model railways praise its creative freedom and direct train control, but almost everyone flags the high price and steep learning curve. A significant number report crashes, especially after Windows 11 24h2, that have not been patched. The camera and lack of asset translation frustrate newcomers.
