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.

What players say

Players describe a very short VR puzzle adventure, under an hour, made by one developer. They praise the atmosphere and a dog companion mechanic, but report finicky interactions, obscure puzzle cues, and minor performance hitches. Some compare it favorably to The Gallery or Xing.
