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, cerebral crime investigation that unfolds like a shadowy puzzle box of past and present murders.

About
This debut game from developer Goichi Suda (also known as Suda51) follows the investigation of a series of murders which appear to match the profile of the killer responsible for a high-profile series of government assassinations twenty years prior.
