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 sci-fi survival game where you build and customize a battle train to endure a frozen world's deadly storms and hostile drones.

What players say

Players praise the train-building and survival premise but the game feels unfinished. Many hit progression-blocking bugs or unfinished content, and resource management is punishing until you grow plants. Updates are slow, leaving some to wonder if development stalled.
