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 slow-burn, cinematic horror anthology that feels like playing a lost PS1-era nightmare, built on atmosphere and dread rather than jump scares.

What players say

Players praise the lovecraftian atmosphere and full PT-BR voice acting, but consistently report janky camera controls, broken aiming, and very high difficulty. Some get lost without clear direction. Fans see strong potential in this solo-developed early episode.
