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.

A frantic and oppressive puzzle-platformer where every mistake brings lasting consequences and the world feels thick with dread.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and art style but find the platforming frustrating, with stiff controls and punishing death mechanics. The game is compared favorably to Limbo and Inside. Players split on difficulty: some enjoy the challenge while others find it tedious, especially boss fights.
