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.

A slow-paced narrative experience that lets you explore unsettling environments and unravel strange events at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and storytelling but note the game was abandoned by its developers. Some find the opening tedious with unskippable dialogue and slow pacing. It is a short, narrative-focused experience best for SCP fans.
