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

You possess and puppet broken people through a high-rise slaughterhouse, a tense, gory power fantasy of controlling desperate civilians against a cult.

What players say

Players praise the surreal, Lynchian story and atmosphere, with combat that is creative but rough around the edges. The game takes 13 to 20 hours to beat, and opinions split on whether the padding, door animations, and early save points are frustrating. Many compare it to Suda51 or Resident Evil.
