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 slow-burn, atmospheric mystery where you piece together clues in a grim small town through ambient exploration and reflection.

What players say

Players describe Asbury Pines as an idle game that tells a mystery story about a murder and time travel. It takes roughly 16 to 17 hours and involves checking in to read unlocked story and set idle tasks. Some find it engaging while one reviewer calls it boring. The story is linear and decisions do not matter, which players note as a deliberate choice.
