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 tense and atmospheric first-person escape where you solve puzzles while evading a pursuer in a dark mansion.

What players say

Players report a short horror escape with a monster that is easy to trap or avoid, making the threat more silly than scary. The game lacks mouse sensitivity settings and feels oddly demanding for its scale, and it has been announced for delisting in 2026.
