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 short, lonely walk through a liminal office space where the humming fluorescents and faint corporate jazz make every locked room feel emptier.

What players say
Players praise this as a brief, atmospheric puzzle game set in liminal office spaces with a retro 90s art style, easily completed in under an hour. A unique mechanic and discomforting but not overwhelming eerie tone are highlights, though the short length may catch some off guard.
