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, puzzle-driven escape game where you investigate and debate to survive a deadly game of lies.

What players say

Players call this a lower-budget Danganronpa clone with simple logic puzzles and heavy-handed clue guidance. Most praise the cheap price and nostalgic mobile roots, but many warn that the true ending requires a forced second playthrough and delivers an unpleasant twist. Reviews split on whether the 3-4 hour story is worth the time.
