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, fast-paced escape from a police station while being hunted by a robot guard, with creepy notes adding to the dread.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and tension, but many find the game very short, around 30 minutes. The android enemy and its patrols frustrate some players, especially in a section with no checkpoints. The game draws frequent comparisons to CASE Animatronics.
