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 direct a tense, film-like conversation on a dark shoreline, choosing camera angles and dialogue as a lone fisherman talks with an armed stranger.

What players say
Players finish The Night Fisherman in about ten minutes. Many note it reinterprets a scene from Inglourious Basterds, and opinions split on whether the story is compelling or cliché. The art style is often praised.
