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 calm, linear walk through hidden objects that gradually shifts into unsettling psychological thriller territory.

What players say

Players praise the original LiDAR scanning mechanic that reveals the world in dots, but many note the game is a short, relaxing exploration rather than a true horror experience. Opinions split on depth, with some calling it a satisfying tech demo while others wish for more content. A common frustration is being blocked or slowed by small vegetation collision.
