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 and terrifying multiplayer game where you must keep your eyes on the mannequins to survive.

What players say

Players love the asymmetrical mannequin vs survivor chase, especially the teleport ability, but agree the game is very short on content with only one map. The community is split on value: some call it a fun budget game with friends, while others say it is too bare bones and recommend a similar title instead.
