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 tense, asymmetrical chase game where light-bearers cooperate to escape an ever-growing shadow threat, inspired by Poe's dark poetry.

What players say

Players are split on Light Bearers. Some call it a fun hide-and-seek game with friends and cute bear characters, while others say it is a dead PvP game used as a deceptive ad for its full-priced version.
