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 slow-burn cyber-noir detective story where every decision shapes a gritty, lore-drenched world and its characters.

What players say

Players praise the stylish noir visuals and voice acting, but widely report bugs that break story logic, a confusing UI, and an abrupt ending. The game runs about 2-4 hours, with no real puzzles or inventory. Players split on whether the writing is engaging or boring, and many advise buying only at a deep discount.
