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, atmospheric walk through a monochrome world where the environment conveys a somber story of guilt and loss.

What players say

Players praise the atmospheric journey through the five stages of grief, with beautiful visuals and sound design. Some find the story predictable since chapter names give away the structure, and note the writing could use proofreading. The game is short, about two to three hours.
