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 sprawling, buggy open-world survival RPG where you scavenge, build and explore a radioactive wasteland alone or with friends, balancing dark humor with moments of tension.

What players say

Players love exploring Appalachia with friends, but say the game is a cash grab that forces a monthly subscription for basic inventory space. Many report losing progress to bugs, and long-time players feel development stalled after layoffs.
