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 escape room experience where solving puzzles is punctuated by eerie sounds and the looming presence of a strange creature, with natural walking motion pulling you deeper into a Lovecraftian mystery.

What players say

Players praise the roomscale puzzles and creepy atmosphere but are split on bugs and length. The game requires physical movement with no teleport, expects a large playspace, and takes about 2 hours to finish. Some report frustrating bugs, especially with saving and item interaction, while others find the puzzle design fair and the multiple endings rewarding.
