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 puzzle-like survival where you frantically manage your backpack's condition against hunger, fatigue, and madness.

What players say
Players praise the inventory management and climbing premise, but many find the game too short and easy, with a lack of variety. A common complaint is the absence of a mid-run save feature, which makes the few-hour runs risky. Reviews also note jankiness in the bag system and a heavy reliance on randomness.
