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 walk through quiet, contemplative spaces and listen to personal stories of displacement, creating a meditative and sobering experience.

What players say

Players praise the story and movement, particularly the focus on rescuing refugees instead of fighting. Some note minor setup friction with gamepads and difficulty performing sword combos with mouse and keyboard.
