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, methodical stealth escape through shadowy corridors, driven by a conspiracy and the quiet desperation of a wrongfully convicted scientist.

What players say

Players enjoy the stealth mechanics and story, but report frequent frame drops and a very short runtime of about 20 minutes through 5 rooms.
