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 tense tactical RPG with brutal real-time combat and a focus on survival and vengeance in a gory, post-apocalyptic world.

What players say

Players praise the game's unique blend of tactical combat and mental health mechanics, comparing it to classic Fallout games. However, development has stalled for years with infrequent updates, leaving the community split between those who find the current content worthwhile and those who warn the game will likely never be finished.
