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, choice-heavy text adventure where you unravel vampire conspiracies and manage alliances, driven by reading and imagination.

What players say

Players agree the story starts well but falls apart in the final act, with a rushed ending and choices that rarely carry through. Characters are described as shallow and forgettable, and the pacing is uneven, spending too long on buildup before a disjointed conclusion.
