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

You navigate a cold, abandoned cell and solve puzzles under the unsettling guidance of a voice, with an isolating and mysterious tension.

What players say

Players describe SINNERS as a short, puzzle-driven horror game with a Saw-like story and retro Pokemon-style visuals. It was built in RPG Maker by one developer. The puzzles range from straightforward to frustrating, with one particular classroom puzzle singled out as unfair. The atmosphere is eerie, the voice acting is in German, and there are multiple endings that encourage replaying.
