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

Navigating gloomy, shadowy realms with deliberate exploration and combat, mixing restored retro content and a foreboding atmosphere.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere, voice acting, and expanded content in the remaster, but warn that the game is easy to get lost in with tedious backtracking. The combat is fine, but unclear objectives and running in circles frustrate some, while others compare it to a horror-themed collectathon.
