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 lighthearted, conversation-driven adventure where a sarcastic bard trades ballads for survival with a bored vampire in an abandoned castle.

What players say
Players praise the mystery plot and character design but find the voice acting weak and the music repetitive. It is a short free game, with some calling it rough yet heartfelt.
