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
an atmospheric and unsettling narrative experience with strange characters and an unknowable horror lurking beneath sea tales

What players say
Players call it Lovecraftian Papers Please with Dredge vibes: you maintain a lighthouse, make moral choices, and chat with odd visitors. They praise the atmosphere and art but find the gameplay loop repetitive after day five, the campaign overly long, and the endings unsatisfying or bugged. Many draw comparisons to No I Am Not Human.
