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 quiet, atmospheric walk through summer locations that can shift into tense, horror-tinged mystery depending on the chosen path.

What players say

Players are split on the implementation. Many like its atmospheric point-and-click walks with multiple endings but find it buggy, with missing audio, unplayable endings, and disappearing controls. The game blends scenic nature walks with optional horror and mystical themes.
