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-burn haunted house investigation with retro pixel visuals and a gothic, Italian horror-inspired atmosphere.

What players say

Players are split on this short retro point-and-click horror. Some praise the pixel art, story, and multiple endings, while others find the puzzles pointlessly vague and the enemy chases more annoying than scary. The game is short and cheap, but many say a guide is needed for some puzzles.
