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.

What players say

Players are split on Redrum: Time Lies. Many enjoy the creepy art and the story's dark tone, but most warn the game is full of repetitive jigsaw puzzles and ends on an unresolved cliffhanger, with no third game to wrap things up. Some also report bugs and a lack of widescreen support.
