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, atmospheric survival horror experience where you scavenge and fight through a desolate London with creative environmental combat.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and graphics but consistently warn the game feels abandoned, with no updates for two years and a deleted expansion post. The open world is empty outside of indoor locations, combat is clunky, and the demo is more polished and focused than the full product.
