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 slow, unsettling exploration through a 2D pixel house where reality blurs with illusion, driven by a dark narrative rather than jump scares.

What players say
Players are split on this free side-scrolling adventure. Some praise its mysterious, atmospheric story about mental health, while others find the plot confusing, the writing hamfisted, and the walking painfully slow.
