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 dual-mode VR flight experience that shifts between cockpit precision and arcade-like action with motion controls.

What players say

Players are divided: some enjoy flying planes in third person while juggling tasks like bird clearing, but a vocal group finds the fixed camera behind the plane nauseating and not tracking well. Many note it is nearly a duplicate of the original Final Approach, and several say the game was left unfinished.
