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 tense, tactical crawl through Lovecraftian underwater ruins where every turn brings dread and discovery.

What players say
Players are split on Stirring Abyss. Many praise its Lovecraftian atmosphere and solid tactical combat, but a vocal group complains about mandatory ironman saves, a lack of manual saves, poor UI, and limited content that makes the game feel abandoned. Difficulty is polarizing: some find it brutally hard while others say it is easy on normal.
