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 praise the unique Indian WWII perspective and earnest efforts, but the game is held back by poor weapon accuracy, janky controls, and a very short 1-hour campaign. Many note the developer is clearly a small team with limited resources.
