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 slow, tense, and atmosphere-heavy struggle against limited resources and relentless undead foes in a claustrophobic mansion.

What players say

Players love the tense atmosphere and rewarding exploration of the Spencer Mansion, but they are split on the fixed camera and tank controls. Some find them charming and integral to the tension, while others call them frustrating and dated. Many recommend using a guide for the cryptic puzzles.
