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

Exploring a eerily quiet, decrepit lunar base where every flickering light and distant sound keeps you on edge.

What players say

Players praise the retro-future atmosphere and sound design, often comparing it to Alien Isolation. However, there is a clear split: many appreciate the lack of hand-holding and puzzles, while others find those same puzzles frustrating and the enemies too simple to actually threaten. The story is considered weak by some, and the game is short, around 6 hours.
