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 surreal and unsettling VR puzzle adventure that blends dark humor with psychological tension as you navigate a deranged conspiracy through abstract challenges.

What players say

Players describe Phantasma as a challenging VR escape room with a dark, surreal horror atmosphere and a creepy bunny mascot. Most agree the puzzles demand outside-the-box thinking, with an early Paris puzzle that was reworked after frustration. Completion takes roughly 3 to 5 hours, and the abstract story leaves some wanting more.
