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

Feels like a dedicated tennis practice session in VR, demanding precise physical movements and offering deep simulation over arcade fun.

What players say

Players are split on the physics: some find it realistic and a great workout, others find it unpredictable and frustrating. The auto-movement is a common pain point, and the Quest store version is widely considered superior to the Steam version.
