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 tense, high-stakes space survival simulation where every decision can mean life or death for your crew and ship.

What players say
Players love the atmosphere and tight mechanics but warn that it is brutally difficult, especially the final boss. Many describe repeated failures on Easy, and some find the RNG frustrating or the need to pause constantly disruptive. The game is highly replayable with deep systems.
