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 brief, introspective walk through a desolate town, offering a tarot-like self-reflection tool with heavy, dark themes and a surreal, meditative pace.

What players say
Players say The Shape On The Ground is a short, atmospheric walking sim that uses tarot-like dioramas and multiple-choice questions to deliver a final reading. Opinions split on whether the reading feels insightful or too vague. Most finish in 15 to 20 minutes.
