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 tense, atmospheric first-person survival horror where you navigate shifting nightmares as a father desperately searching for his lost family.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and story, comparing it favorably to Cry of Fear and Silent Hill, but many report frustration with boss mechanics and technical issues like stutters before enemy encounters. The ending is widely considered lackluster.
