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, punishing top-down platformer where you dodge ghosts and collect items under constant pressure.

What players say

Players describe it as a short hide-and-seek horror game where you collect items to escape a house while avoiding a witch. The witch moves at the same speed as the player, making chases manageable, though some find the controls unresponsive and the battery mechanic pointless. Players split on the story's appeal, but most agree it is a decent way to spend an evening.
