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 black-and-white hand-drawn horror FPS that feels like a gritty, old-school boomer shooter with a noir atmosphere and fast-paced combat.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn monochrome art style and find the shooting satisfying, but many say the campaign is short, the weapons are unbalanced, and bosses can die in one hit. Performance dips in open areas are common.
