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 first-person puzzle game where you gather clues while feeling watched by demonic entities in a dark, atmospheric mansion.

What players say

Players praise the puzzles as well-crafted and challenging, but they split on the horror elements. Some find the game not scary at all, while others are put off by reliance on jump scares and a tedious enemy. The game is short, around 2 to 4 hours, and ends on a cliffhanger, which frustrates some. The developer is noted for responding to feedback and updating the game post-launch.
