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 slow-paced, atmospheric exploration through dark, minimalist 3D scenes, each telling a grim story with object searches.

What players say

Players describe it as a very short point-and-click where you click on flickering shapes to advance. The price is widely criticized as too high for what's offered. A few reviewers enjoy the dark atmosphere, but others call it an asset flip or compare it to shovelware. The game is in early access with only a few levels.
