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 tense and atmospheric stealth survival horror experience where you navigate dark, procedurally generated caves and a lab while evading a monstrous creature.

What players say

Players are split: some find it a fun, cheap horror game with funny moments and jumpscares, while others call it unpolished with bad animations and sound. Long-time players note the graphics and even the game's name were replaced after 2022.
