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 slow-paced, quirky open-world where you drive a radio-controlled forklift through a desolate city, solving simple puzzles and completing requests from other AI machines.

What players say

Players describe Forklift Load as a quirky open-world adventure where you control a jumping forklift through a melancholic sci-fi story. The physics are notoriously janky, and controls are finicky, making even simple tasks infuriating. Opinions split on whether the charm outweighs the frustration, but most agree it is a short experience at under three hours.
