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 hypnotic, pensive journey through a surreal and disturbing inner world where simple controls meet challenging puzzles and an open narrative.

What players say

Players praise the surreal, sketch-like black-and-white art and the hypnotic tunnel perspective. The puzzles are thoughtful but often frustrating, with several players recommending a walkthrough. The game is short, around two to three hours.
