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 relaxed, point-and-click exploration where you click on objects to learn foreign language words in a colorful 3D environment.

What players say
Players are split on Influent. Some praise it as a helpful visual vocabulary builder for associative learning, especially for beginners. However, many criticize the limited scope of only an apartment's worth of nouns, confusing controls, boring gameplay, and errors in audio and words. Long-time players note that updates have not fixed these issues.
