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, story-driven point-and-click visual novel with gory, surreal horror and a retro, atmospheric feel.

What players say
Players praise the homage to 80s sci-fi horror like Alien and The Thing, with atmospheric music and a claustrophobic feel. However, nearly all agree it is very short at under an hour, ends on a cliffhanger, and as of years after release there has been no sign of the planned further episodes.
