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

You are trapped in a creepy 80s slasher house, frantically running from a deranged taxidermist while tension builds with every step.

What players say

Players praise the 80s slasher atmosphere and unique taxidermy setting, but some report motion sickness from the blurry VHS filter and breathing animation. The short runtime is around 45 minutes to an hour, with loud chase music being a common complaint. Some players find the puzzles nonsensical and platforming rough.
