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 decaying sci-fi world, wander a fleshy cathedral, and uncover fragmented stories through optional, branching conversations that unfold at your own pace.

What players say

Players praise the disturbing cosmic horror atmosphere and memorable multiple endings, but many find replaying the whole game to see them all tedious because there is no save system or chapter select.
