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 and atmospheric survival horror where you cautiously explore a gory facility, solve puzzles, and escape monsters.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and old-school RPG maker charm, but many call it too short and say the story feels incomplete because only part one of a series has been remade. There is a chase mechanic and a split between two character perspectives, with most preferring the first.
