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, slow-burning horror walk through a realistic campus where occult knowledge and puzzle-solving drive the unease.

What players say

Players praise the atmospheric 3D campus and creative spell-casting, but nearly everyone says poor guidance, broken translations, and frequent bugs make the game unplayable. Reviews split on promise: some see a cult classic in the making, others quit from aimless wandering and save-losing crashes.
