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 fast-paced, comedic VR shooter where you ride a stick horse across the Badlands, slinging lead without motion sickness.

What players say

Players praise the stick horse locomotion as clever and hilarious, but some warn it can cause motion sickness. The game is considered easy, with a fun cartoon western style and simple wave shooter action. Players want more difficulty and story, but overall find it charming and good for parties.
