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.

A physical yet soothing VR climbing and leaping experience with satisfying physics-based movement.

What players say

Players are split on the controls: some find them broken and frustrating, while others say updates have improved them. The parkour is described as hard and punishing, with arm swinging, climbing, and boost jumps in a Tron-like setting.
