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, atmospheric point-and-click adaptation of a Lovecraft tale, with a dark and mysterious tone, played through traditional exploration and puzzle-solving.

What players say
Players describe this as a very short adaptation of a Lovecraft story, taking about 20 to 30 minutes to finish. The hand-drawn art style and eerie atmosphere get consistent praise, though some note there are no real puzzles to solve.
