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, short horror walk through eerie environments where you must spot subtle changes or face deadly consequences.

What players say

Players describe it as a short anomaly-spotting game with a tense atmosphere, but many say the jumpscares grow repetitive and the content feels like a demo. Reviews split on replay value, and some report motion sickness from head bobbing that cannot be disabled.
