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 watch and react to grainy 90s footage, clicking cameras and traps to protect teens from campy vampire invaders.

What players say

Players call it a fun novelty that captures the cheesy 80s vibe, but the gameplay is simple trial and error. Many praise the video remastering, though some note the PC version has not received a promised major update since 2017.
