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 deliberately awkward and absurd journey home that mixes dark humor, gothic horror, and immersive simulation with a heavy, noir-inflected sense of unease.

What players say

Players control a severed head rolling home, finding the physics unpredictable and the controls frustrating but the story and ending surprisingly touching. Reviews are split on difficulty: some find it manageable after updates, while others call it rage-inducing. The game draws comparisons to the developer's altf4 series.
