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 short, minimalist horror walking-sim where you peer through a grainy camera at a volcanic planet, letting isolation and sound build a quiet, uneasy tension.

What players say

Players enjoy the tense atmosphere and cosmic horror vibe, often comparing it to Iron Lung, but find it very short and the ending lacking. Opinions split on the story, with some calling it shallow and others wanting more lore. Performance bugs and unintuitive design are noted.
