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 solitary, atmospheric exploration through alien ruins, with deliberate movement and puzzle-solving in a VR space.

What players say

Players praise the surreal visuals and sense of exploration in an alien world, but many are frustrated by the lack of a save system and find the movement controls nauseating. Reviews split on whether the puzzles are rewarding or tedious, and the game is often described as short, around 1-2 hours.
