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 sprawling, dated sci-fi MMO where you explore a vast alien world, customize your character extensively, and engage in cooperative or competitive play with thousands of others.

What players say

A 25-year-old sci-fi MMO that players call the deepest and most complex MMORPG ever made, but the Steam version runs an old engine and the population is very low. Players split on whether the depth is worth the ancient graphics and clunky setup process.
