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 supernatural mystery unfolds through changing perspectives, blending investigation with a slow-burn, story-centric feel.

What players say

Players say the sequel is less horror-focused than the original, trading dread for a lighter summer atmosphere and more romance. The story and characters are praised as stronger, while the true ending often requires a walkthrough. The diving minigame is a mixed addition.
