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 first-person survival horror where you explore an oppressive scientific complex, solve puzzles, and face threats while relying on mindfulness and a tense, cinematic atmosphere.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy the horror atmosphere and low price, while others call it an asset flip with clumsy design. Common complaints are the lack of a map, poor visibility, and having only one weapon type, though the short length and cheap price win some over.
