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 relaxed, story-driven detective noir in a retro-futuristic city, with hand-drawn visuals and gentle humor, perfect for unwinding.

What players say
Players praise the hand-drawn art and noir atmosphere but consistently note the game is very short, around one hour. It is a simple point-and-click VR adventure with easy puzzles, often compared to classic adventure games like Grim Fandango. Some find it works best as a prologue to the sequel.
