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 rough, amateur survival horror experience that tries to build tension through dimly lit manor exploration and an original soundtrack from a respected composer.

What players say
Players are divided on this free horror game. Some call it a short but atmospheric experience with PS1-style visuals and Amnesia vibes, while others dismiss it as an asset flip or poorly optimized. Many note it was made by a 15-year-old and takes under 30 minutes to finish.
