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, stealth-focused experience of navigating a surreal forest while evading eerie, hostile cartoon entities under time pressure.

What players say

Players describe it as a Slender-like horror game set in the Steamboat Willie public domain. The game uses your microphone to detect noise, which some find immersive but others criticize because it cannot be turned off. Players are split on difficulty: some find it easy after learning patterns, while others say Minnie's instant kill is frustrating and the time limit is too tight.
