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, immersive first-person horror where solving gruesome puzzles and making weighted choices drives a dark, story-rich experience.

What players say

Players praise the variety of unique puzzles and dark atmosphere, though they warn the walking speed is painfully slow and some puzzles, especially in chapter 9, are frustrating. Opinions split on the story: some find it emotionally engaging, others say it trivializes serious themes.
