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 tense, claustrophobic horror game where you must carefully monitor your submarine's systems while navigating the deep ocean under constant threat of suffocation.

What players say
Players enjoy the atmosphere and rhythm but agree it is very short, some finishing in under 30 minutes. Many call it more of a demo than a full game, and the ending leaves some confused.
