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 tense and atmospheric narrative-driven action-adventure with simulation and strategy elements, still in early access.

What players say

Players are sharply divided. Many call the core loop broken: tools shatter on one crate, resources never come back, and the constant temperature complaints drown out gameplay. Others praise the devs' responsiveness and see potential, but even supporters note bugs, crashes, and a tiny map. A vocal group says it feels like an unpaid demo, not a game.
