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 surreal, darkly humorous walk through a warehouse where you solve puzzles and chat with odd workers, driven by a mysterious call for an egg.

What players say

Players praise the dreamlike atmosphere and PS1-style graphics, but note the heavy reliance on keyhunts can be divisive. The game offers 4 endings in about 2-3 hours, with a new game+ option to skip repeated sections. Some wish the audio was more ambient and less like standard PS1 music.
