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 first-person survival game where you must quietly blend in with mannequins to avoid a lurking threat while fulfilling factory quotas and uncovering dark secrets.

What players say

Players are split on this horror factory game: some enjoy its creepy atmosphere and unusual mechanics like the mannequin mask, but many others report game-breaking bugs, a lack of an ending screen, and repetitive tasks that make it feel padded out.
