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 piece together cryptic clues and witness strange, interconnected events in a deliberate, puzzle-solving detective game that feels like unraveling a dense, atmospheric mystery.

What players say
Players say the game is a worthy sequel that expands the detective formula, though some find the puzzles rely too much on guesswork and trial-and-error adjective swapping. The story and final payoff are highly praised, with the DLCs getting mixed reviews for difficulty.
