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 first-person exploration through endless, eerily familiar hallways where every attempt to escape resets your progress.

What players say

Players describe it as a satirical Exit 8-style Backrooms game with heavy meme humor. Some praise the comedy, but others complain about parkour controls where the jump input often fails, and note the use of AI-generated art.
