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 whimsical yet dark journey through a fantastical Chinese underworld, blending ancient myth with modern elements as a timid protagonist navigates puzzles and combat to escape ghostly imprisonment.

What players say
Players praise the clever blend of Chinese mythology and modern gameplay, especially the hidden ghosts and motorcycling through hell. The story is complete and emotional, with a memorable ending. Some note tense time-based mazes, offset by a compassionate mode. A few call it 'too eerie,' but the writing and exploration of Fengdu city are widely enjoyed.
