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 deliberate, methodical open-world trucking experience focused on cargo delivery and building a transport empire.

What players say

Players call this a cult classic from childhood that still delivers a janky, fast-paced trucking experience compared to modern sims. The Steam release is a bare port: it lacks widescreen support, cut the intro cutscene, and has broken achievements. A community patch is needed to fix these issues.
