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 meditative, non-linear interactive novella where scrolling forwards and backwards through an ever-changing story creates a haunting, unraveling mystery.

What players say
Players praise the writing and cosmic horror atmosphere but are split on the story's coherence and ending. Some find it brilliant and poetic, while others call it pretentious and incomplete. The music is widely appreciated.
