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
You navigate a surreal, sterile 3D simulation of an AI's mind, solving puzzles while a creeping unease suggests something is wrong.

What players say
Players describe a short, unsettling horror experience with glitchy visuals that can be headache-inducing. The story and atmosphere are praised, but a refresh-rate locking bug can block completion.
