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 tense, methodical horror experience where you follow perilous instructions while trapped in a confined elevator, each floor bringing a new threat.

What players say

Players hunt anomalies from inside an elevator without leaving it, which keeps the focus tight but can feel tedious because the door won't stay open. The game has 7 main stages plus a true ending with hidden floors, giving it more content than most in the genre, though the ghost encounters are mild and some find the repetition dull.
