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 frantic, physically engaged scavenger hunt where tension between careful movement and the thrill of potential destruction keeps you constantly on edge.

What players say

Players are split on the WalkAbout locomotion system, which requires crawling and contorting in real space. Some call it genius, others find it unplayable. The game is a cheap VR bull-in-a-china-shop experience with nice art and music, but needs a large, clear playspace and ideally a wireless headset to avoid tangling.
