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 game of cat-and-mouse where you must blend in and wait for the perfect moment to strike while avoiding other hunters.

What players say

Players say the stealth-focused multiplayer is clever and tense, but the online lobbies are dead and private games are broken by NAT restrictions. Those who play with friends or bots still find the mind games enjoyable, though.
