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 methodical first-person puzzle game where you navigate a mysterious pyramid, manipulating light beams to unlock paths while avoiding ancient traps.

What players say

Players praise the creative light-based puzzles but are split on the snake mechanic, which many find frustrating and immersion-breaking. The inability to save mid-level and long later stages turn enjoyment into tedium for some, while others appreciate the Egyptian theme and multiple endings.
