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 contemplative and atmospheric detective journey where you piece together clues and decide your approach, balancing deduction with optional action in a world shaped by your choices.

What players say
Players praise the story and cases as compelling, but they consistently criticize the combat as clunky and the controls as janky. Travel across the open world is often described as annoying, and some report performance stutters. The ending is frequently called memorable and bittersweet.
