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, resource-starved stealth crawl where every step in the dark is a gamble between your light and your life.

What players say
Players describe a short but challenging game built around a clever light-based health mechanic. The experience is over quickly, which suits its difficulty, and some missed having a story. The ending and visuals get praise, and a few set challenges by replaying.
