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, claustrophobic dive into an abyssal trench where the pressure of the deep and lurking unknowns make every decision feel heavy.

What players say
Players praise The Trench as a very short, linear horror experience they finish in one sitting, with many calling it cinematic.
