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 desperate, lonely struggle through a crumbling city where every step feels fragile and each encounter is a tense gamble for scarce resources.

What players say

Players praise the post-apocalyptic survival premise but split on the execution: the stamina system and resource scarcity are memorable, while the combat is widely panned and the PC port has persistent technical issues.
