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 tense, gloomy medieval plague management sim where you balance curing villagers against the constant threat of your own infection, with permadeath and hand-drawn visuals.

What players say
Players say Pestis is a very short game, often finished in under two hours, built around a repetitive loop of collecting herbs and stomping rats. Reviews uniformly call it overpriced at its current asking price, and several accuse the developer of asset-flipping.
