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, first-person walking sim with an unsettling J-horror atmosphere and a grainy VHS aesthetic.

What players say

Players say the game is very short and predictable, though some praise its atmosphere. There is a chase sequence that reviewers found genuinely scary. A few compare it unfavorably to Chilla's Art titles, calling it middle-school tier. Opinions split on whether the price is fair.
