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 slow, claustrophobic walk through a dark blood ocean in a fragile diving suit, relying on limited lights for sparse visibility.

What players say

Players call this a slow-paced walking simulator set in the Iron Lung universe, where you explore a bloody ocean while wearing a metal casket and piece together a story through notes. Opinions split on the pacing, some find it intriguing for the price, others warn the pace might be too slow for some.
