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 brief, whimsical horror stroll where you explore a gallery of animated dog paintings that give you affectionate licks instead of scares.

What players say

Players describe a short, cute horror game where dog paintings chase you when you look away, like Weeping Angels. It takes about 15–30 minutes, has multiple difficulty levels and a new game plus, but no Steam achievements. Some players find the later rooms too difficult, while others appreciate the checkpoint system and sound cues.
