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

Walking as a curious robot through a quiet, desolate world, exploring ruins and making logical moral choices in a contemplative, atmospheric journey.

What players say

Players say the story is decent but cut short with no real ending, and the development team abandoned the game. The slow pacing, buggy controls, and pointless backtracking make it a boring experience for many.
