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

A frantic VR puzzle game where you physically move around a room, racing against rising water and holding your breath to find clues and tools before drowning.

What players say

Players praise the water-filling-room concept and tense atmosphere, but say it is very short at around 15-20 minutes with only a handful of puzzles. Some report broken puzzle triggers and controller tracking problems, while others find the challenge fair and enjoy showing it off.
