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

You navigate a dark forest on bike and on foot, solving puzzles while evading supernatural threats in a tense, atmospheric horror experience.

What players say

Players praise this horror game for its unique bike sections and well-paced mix of on-foot exploration. Many find the bike trials challenging but engaging, while the puzzles and atmosphere are highlights. Stamina management is a common frustration, and some players suggest keyboard and mouse controls work better than a gamepad.
