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, atmospheric survival horror maze game where you navigate dark 1980s streets as a night worker trying to earn money while evading a serial killer.

What players say

Players say the atmosphere is creepy and the PS1-style graphics fit, but the game is very dark with no brightness setting, making navigation frustrating. It is short, around 30 to 60 minutes, with multiple endings. Some complain the killer always catches you once spotted and there is no map, but others find it a fun cheap horror game.
