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 survival game set in a harsh frozen wasteland where every decision carries weight and the environment feels indifferent and deadly.

What players say
Players praise the writing and characters, with many finding the story emotionally gripping despite some frustration over choices that require trial and error. The survival mechanics are simple but complement the narrative, though a few reviews note that common sense alone won't lead to the best outcomes.
