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 solitary first-person horror puzzle experience set in a gloomy, unfamiliar environment.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and visual polish of this one-person project, but reports of poor optimization and a punishingly short camera flashlight are common. Some find the story predictable and the menus underwhelming.
