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
You run a game studio from a garage in the 80s, make business decisions, research tech, and feel the satisfaction of growing your company and creating hit games.

What players say
Players praise the satisfying loop of building a studio from a garage and releasing games across evolving console generations, but the game's hidden scoring system frustrates some and the gameplay gets repetitive after a few hours.
