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, claustrophobic puzzle game where the pressure of time and eerie surroundings make every decision feel urgent.

About

Based on a true story, it begins in a decaying urban environment from which you must escape. You face a number of challenges as you work your way through the game. As the story progresses, it becomes more obvious that speed is of the essence. Take too long with the various puzzles, and you'll end up stuck in the lounge. Figure out how to beat the NPCs against whom you're playing, and you'll reach the exit.
