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 lonely, methodical puzzle-solving experience in a dark and oppressive environment, with no guidance and a constant sense of being watched.

What players say
Players praise its challenging puzzles and rewarding exploration, though the deliberate tank controls and limited FOV frustrate some. The game is largely a slow-paced walking sim with horror from atmosphere rather than jumpscares, and many note its metatextual elements and secret-hunting on a real website.
