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 are a fragile prey sneaking through a spaceship, never knowing if allies are traitors, in a tense, cinematic multiplayer horror game.

What players say

Players say the game was abandoned by developers after a brief period in early access. Despite a late 2025 update that fixed multiplayer connectivity, the game still suffers from poor optimization and low player counts.
