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 disorienting and surreal exploration through shifting, dreamlike rooms with a constant undercurrent of dread from unseen creatures.

What players say

Players praise the unique art style and spooky but cute atmosphere. The game is short, around an hour, but lacks a save function which can be frustrating. A chase sequence late in the game trips some up. Early mouse sensitivity issues were patched.
