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 methodical transport simulation where you build and manage networks of trains, busses, and planes to connect towns and move resources.

What players say

Players see potential in Epic Trains 4 but warn it is rough and unfinished. The tutorial and UI are clunky, and some find basic actions frustrating. On the positive side, those who dig in enjoy the multi-modal logistics with trains, planes, boats and trucks.
