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 slow, solitary exploration of beautiful but ominous Scottish islands where tension builds through quiet discovery and atmospheric dread

What players say
Players are divided on The Wickie. Some praise its eerie atmosphere, Lovecraftian vibes, and a responsive developer, but others report frustration with obtuse puzzle design, performance problems, and a sense the game was released unfinished, requiring patches to become playable. Character models use 2D sprites in a 3D world, which players note as distinctive.
