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
You read and choose your path through a Lovecraftian detective story that mixes mystery with dark humour.

What players say
Players split on the tone: some enjoy the silly choose-your-own-adventure and its 27 endings, others call the humor juvenile and unfitting. The story recycles the same paragraphs regardless of choice, making progress feel aimless. Several reviews criticize the opening disclaimer that calls Lovecraft problematic.
