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.

What players say

Players say Anomaly Bus is an unfinished anomaly-spotting game with only a handful of anomalies that repeat often, ending abruptly after twelve correct finds. Reviews split on its odd charm versus calling it a cash grab, with many noting the bus ride leads to a fishing scene that feels out of place.
