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

You build a game studio from scratch, carefully choosing genres and roles as you guide your company through the early decades of game history.

What players say

Players call it a solid but abandoned game dev sim with bugs that never got fixed. It offers gradual complexity and can be entertaining, but the lack of updates, unfinished features, and a frustrating MMO system leave many disappointed.
