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.

What players say

Players say Freight Manager in 2025 is a promising but shallow early-access game. They compare it to the classic Ports of Call, but find the current loop of loading and docking ships grows repetitive quickly, with a lack of automation or depth. Players are split on recommending it: some see potential and cite an active developer, while others say it feels too bare-bones for its current price.
