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 gentle, story-driven walking sim through a cold alien wilderness where you solve small puzzles and help animals.

What players say

Players say the game is a short, linear walking simulator with a beautiful soundtrack and winter atmosphere, but the English translation is poor enough to muddle the story. Navigation can be unclear and controls feel awkward, though the low price and retro visuals earn some goodwill.
