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 explore a haunted Soviet submarine in first person, scavenging weapons and piecing together a supernatural mystery with a deliberate, retro-inspired pace.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and System Shock-inspired design of this Soviet submarine horror game, but performance issues and frame drops make it nearly unplayable for many. Gunplay feels buggy, and the game has jank that frustrates players despite its personality.
