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 creep through a rain-soaked, empty lab, constantly aware of being watched and hunted, solving puzzles in tense silence.

What players say

Players describe a short, free puzzle-horror game that takes about 15 to 20 minutes. The cute artstyle and atmosphere are praised, but players split on the puzzles: some find them well-paced while others say a math puzzle is too difficult without a guide. The ending chase sequence is noted as a tonal shift.
