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

A bleak and methodical point-and-click journey through claustrophobic underground tunnels, heavy with survival tension.

What players say

Players describe it as a very short kinetic novel with pixel art and a few minigames, noting frequent typos and a lack of autosave. Many call the story simplistic and cliché, and several complain that the promised sequel never released in the years since launch.
