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 methodical, realistic simulation of extinguishing fires and coordinating with a team in an open urban environment.

What players say

Players enjoy the cooperative firefighting gameplay and realistic fire effects, but many report technical issues like crashes, bugs, and a fatal error on startup. Missions become repetitive quickly, and the lack of workshop support is a common complaint.
