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 politically charged interactive fiction where you piece together clues and make strategic choices in a dark, noir-inspired investigation.

What players say
Players praise the interwoven seven-protagonist mystery and the betting mechanic, but many who loved the creator's previous game, The Zodiac Trial, find this one weaker and more contrived. Some report coding puzzles failing on higher difficulties, and several call the ending anticlimactic.
