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

You survive a zombie apocalypse by balancing computer-based communication and scavenging through an empty apartment building, creating a tense, personal, and emotionally driven experience.

What players say

Players describe a very short, text-heavy experience about surviving a zombie outbreak through online chat. The story is considered emotionally effective, though some find the writing simplistic. Gameplay is mostly reading with minimal interaction, and the low-poly visuals are noted as a drawback.
