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

Sailing a ravaged, watery world while managing scarce resources and making grim choices to keep your crew alive feels tense and deliberate.

What players say

Players are unanimous that Feral Blue is an abandoned early-access project. The concept of a Mount & Blade-inspired naval game with land combat sounded promising, but reviewers describe it as broken, unplayable, and lacking any cohesive gameplay. Updates stopped in 2021 and the developer has gone silent, leaving backers feeling scammed.
