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 faithful digital escape room that recreates the suspense and inventive puzzle-solving of a real-world experience from home.

What players say

Players love how faithfully it recreates an offline escape room, but many find the mouse-look camera controls awkward and point to specific puzzles that spike much harder than the rest. There is broad agreement that the story and twist are satisfying, though the AI voice acting sounds artificial.
