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.

What players say

Players describe LightGone as a 2D student horror project with no save function and no graphics settings, leaving lower-end hardware struggling. Reviews are split: some praise the atmosphere and VFX, while others call the puzzles aimless and the lack of direction frustrating.
