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 quiet, melancholic walk through a detailed, realistic forest house, uncovering a personal story through scattered notes.

What players say
Players are strongly divided on this short walking simulator. Supporters see a sad story about family and work, while critics call it an unfinished asset flip with nonsensical diary translations and only 15 minutes of content.
