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, cooperative tactical shooter where players work as a team to hunt and contain supernatural threats in a dark, 1980s Appalachian setting.

What players say

Players see potential but warn the game is unfinished, with buggy levels and crashes that make it hard to enjoy. The SCPs mostly just walk toward you, though a few like 173 and 096 try something different. The community is small and split on whether updates will come.
