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 crawl through a child's traumatic memories, mixing stealthy avoidance with platforming puzzles in a dark voxel world.

What players say

Players praise the creepy atmosphere and the balance between hiding and running, with a pulse mechanic that uses an ammo-like system. Some note minor control issues and an incomplete Russian translation, but most enjoy the stylistic voxel visuals and ambient music.
