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 brooding, atmosphere-forward adventure that unfolds at a leisurely pace with a weight of cosmic dread.

What players say

Players split on this short cosmic horror walker. Many praise the atmosphere, sound and retro look, others find the story generic and the slow walking across empty spaces tedious. The plot is a predictable take on Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness, finishable in about an hour.
