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
Feels like solving intricate laser logic puzzles in a quiet, mysterious sci-fi facility, requiring patience and ingenuity to progress.

What players say
Players praise the puzzle design as clever and varied, with a difficulty that stays challenging without becoming frustrating. The hint system is a highlight. Some note the visuals are basic and the story is minimal. One reviewer found it too janky to enjoy, but most are enthusiastic, often comparing it to The Talos Principle.
