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, atmospheric first-person exploration through a chilling, deserted house where every sound and shadow hints at a lurking presence.

What players say

Players overwhelmingly agree the game is very short, around 20 to 30 minutes. Most find the puzzles too easy and the jump scares cheap. A widely repeated issue is that the last two Steam achievements are bugged and cannot be unlocked, a problem present since launch. The Christmas horror theme and visuals get some praise, but players are split on whether the atmosphere succeeds.
