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 meticulous, grounded simulation that focuses on the deliberate and careful movements required in zero gravity aboard the ISS.

What players say

Players praise the detailed ISS model, but are split on the controls. Many say the ball robot moves strangely and the zero-g feels off, with a constant downward force. Some note missing Russian modules, no Earth orbit, and performance problems. A few enjoy it as a space walkthrough despite the flaws.
