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 physically intense VR combat game that demands skill and perseverance, where every motion and spell matters in fast-paced battles.

What players say

Players praise the fluid melee combat and time-slow mechanic, comparing it to Superhot and Until You Fall. They say the spellcasting is satisfying with gesture-based inputs, though early access limits weapon and enemy variety, and some find the constant swinging exhausting.
