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 play as a frightened child walking home through a town that feels increasingly menacing, scanning for lurking dangers while reporting them to the police.

What players say

Players enjoy the concept of spotting suspicious people as a schoolgirl, but they are split on the execution. Many love its humor and educational angle, while others criticize the slow pacing, harsh reset penalties, and occasional crashes.
