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

You navigate a surreal, oppressive town where staying in the light is your only defense against psychological dread and moral ambiguity.

What players say

Players appreciate the atmosphere and puzzle depth but find the story ordinary and pacing dull. A few call it a clone of Alan Wake, while others defend it as a solid indie effort.
