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 punishing yet immersive VR dungeon crawl where every sword swing and shield block feels weighty and deliberate.

What players say

Players call it a faithful Dark Souls in VR, praising the bosses and the satisfaction of parrying and aiming for weak spots. Opinions split on the combat: some find it sluggish and unimpactful, while others enjoy it, though an upcoming combat rework is noted. The game is short and its physics lag behind other VR melee titles, but fans of the genre find the atmosphere and build variety compelling.
