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

You are trapped in a shifting, oppressive apartment where the walls remember more than you do, each loop tightening the dread as reality quietly unravels around you.

What players say

Players call it a short, P.T.-inspired horror game set in a looping apartment, with a tense atmosphere and unsettling sound design. Opinions split on the puzzles: some find them clever, others say later endings are glitched or too obscure to find without a guide.
