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 frantic 4v4 hide-and-seek where you play both a mischievous ghost and a heavily-armed hunter, blending spooky tension with tongue-in-cheek comedy.

What players say

Players love the chaotic hide-and-seek gameplay and the midnight role reversal, but nearly every review warns that the player base is tiny, making matchmaking slow and new players face a steep skill gap. Opinions split on whether it is worth the price given the empty lobbies.
