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 slow-burn emotional mystery where you piece together fragmented memories and unravel a conspiracy through dialogue and pixel art exploration.

What players say

Players call Until Then an emotional story about growing up, memory, and loss. They praise its characters and art style but are split on the ending and pacing, with some finding it unsatisfying. The DLC added after launch is especially divisive, with strong negative reactions from some players.
