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-burn detective thriller set in a mysterious mountain village, where you piece together cryptic clues and unsettling folklore through exploration and deduction.

What players say

Players praise the story and art style, especially the eerie cunzhi stories, but many criticize the final chase sequence as tedious and the walking speed as slow. Some find the qq group mechanic and lack of saving when the phone dies frustrating. The ending's organ trafficking reveal is noted, though some players think the social commentary could go deeper.
