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 brief, minimalist first-person climb that feels absurdly slow and slightly communal, with hidden secrets and player-placed panels adding a touch of whimsy.

What players say

Players are split on this brief climbing game. Some find it weirdly comforting or enjoy the messages left by others, but most call it a pointless, amateurish walking simulator with a grating film grain effect that takes about five to ten minutes to finish.
