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 pixel-art horror RPG with a retro feel, where you explore a 19th-century Canadian town corrupted by a sinister substance, focusing on combat and atmosphere.

What players say

Players praise the pixel-art style and the absurd mix of cosmic horror and gold-rush Canada, but split on the polish. Many call out the lack of autosave and quick travel, a grindy start, and a resolution bug that blocks high-refresh monitors.
