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 claustrophobic, emotionally heavy simulation that immerses you in the distorted routine and fractured psyche of a domestic abuse victim.

What players say
Players are split on this simulation about domestic abuse. Some praise its message and emotional impact, while many others call it poorly made, boring, and lazy. Complaints include having no settings menu and being extremely short.
