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 relentless descent into a gothic, pixelated underworld where every twitch of the sticks means life or death.

What players say

Players admire the surreal body horror art and atmosphere, but say the game is short, very easy, and has clunky controls. Many report game-breaking bugs, even years after release, and the ending is described as sad and nihilistic.
