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

You explore a creepy, abandoned museum, solving puzzles while a sinister supernatural presence lurks and builds tension.

What players say

Players enjoy the museum setting and atmosphere, calling it a decent short horror game that wears its Amnesia influences openly. The puzzles are easy and the game is short at about 1-3 hours, but many note it has only one enemy type and an anticlimactic ending.
