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

You are trapped in a security room, frantically managing power and cameras to block horrors while waiting for rescue, in a tense, atmospheric survival struggle.

What players say

Players call it a free mashup of FNAF and SCP with actual walking, though most finish it in about an hour. Some find the scenarios repetitive and say doors can be exploited to block enemies.
