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.

What players say

Players call this a short, atmospheric sailing game about a woman fleeing witch hunts in 16th century Scotland. They praise the realistic wind-based sailing, the haunting music and visuals, and the survival loop of fishing, steering by the stove, and journaling. Some get stuck on navigation or invisible walls, but most find the hour-long journey meditative and eerie.
