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 brief, atmospheric exploration through a darkened base, driven by a quest to find a missing person with the help of AI companions.

What players say

Players describe this as a touching free short story about a cute robot searching for its owner, taking about half an hour. It has two endings and simple puzzles, though some need a guide for full achievements. Players are split on whether the bad or good ending is more moving.
