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, atmospheric descent into a surreal and dangerous void, combining resource management with psychological dread.

What players say

Players compare it favorably to Iron Lung, citing similar controls and atmosphere. The game is short at around two hours, and while the atmosphere and sound design are praised, the gameplay loop of mining one crystal per trip is described as repetitive. Some find the resource management too easy once they learn the systems.
