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 quiet, self-guided puzzle adventure that asks you to uncover its secrets through careful exploration and modest but persistent challenge.

What players say
Players are split on Pertinence. Many praise its challenging, evolving puzzles and addictive nature, but others report frequent crashes and corrupted saves. Timing-heavy sections and the last boss frustrate some, while fans compare it to Antichamber in 2D.
