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
Playing feels like piecing together an obscure digital mystery through cryptic puzzles and fragmented media, with a creeping sense of unease.

What players say
Players describe a short puzzle game that teaches real-world ciphers. It is very easy for ARG veterans but praised for beginners, with some reviewers frustrated by non-optional hints. The SCP story and alternate ending are highlights, and the atmosphere gets a mention.
