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, contemplative first-person puzzle adventure where you methodically explore a vast underground city, solving intricate, non-violent puzzles at your own pace.

What players say

Players say this underground chapter is harder than the first, with dense puzzles that demand note-taking and patience. Some love the math and logic challenges, while others find a few puzzles nearly impossible without a guide. Fans of Myst and Riven will feel at home, though the game has little story.
