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

You creep through a gloomy church and its graveyard, uneasily digging up graves while a lurking demonic presence slowly closes in around you.

What players say

Players say the concept is interesting but the game feels unfinished, with frequent cut-to-black skips replacing gameplay animations and no manual save option. The core loop of robbing graves quickly becomes repetitive, and many note the developer stopped updating it over a year and a half ago.
