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 investigative adventure that combines eerie urban legend research with dreamlike pixel art and point-and-click exploration.

What players say

Players praise the story, art, and atmosphere, especially the ending which many call shocking and perspective-changing. However, they are split on the gameplay: some find the investigation tedious, the puzzles too easy and handholdy, and the dialogue padded, while others enjoy the simple deduction and chapter structure.
