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, story-driven psychological horror with pixel art and atmospheric sound, where you solve puzzles and navigate a disturbing home as a girl confronting her mother's transformation.

What players say

Players call it a short, atmospheric RPG Maker horror game with solid sound design and multiple endings. They are split on the puzzles, which some find too cryptic, and many note rough English translation and reliance on jump scares.
