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 calm, introspective journey of resource gathering and trading in a foreign star system, where the feeling of isolation is paired with a gentle pace of discovery and survival.

What players say

Players describe a short, peaceful resource-gathering game where you never leave your ship. The early manual mining controls are widely criticized as frustrating, but they give way to automation. There is no combat or story beyond repairing your ship. Opinions split on whether the disconnected systems come together.
