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 and atmospheric survival simulation about rationing resources and managing sanity while isolated.

What players say
Players enjoy the multiple endings and realistic depiction of isolation, but many find the game too short and the price too high for the amount of content. Reviews also note the difficulty from unforgiving choices.
