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 slow, introspective journey through a dark and misty mental landscape, where you gently uncover hidden paths through quiet actions and reflection.

What players say

Players are split: some praise the puzzle platformer's art, music, and clever level design, while many report the game freezes on entering a closet and runs at a locked 45 fps. Reviews warn that these bugs were never fixed by the developer.
