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 lonely, dreamlike 2D sci-fi adventure where you explore a strange alien-infested station through photography and experimentation.

What players say

Players praise the pacifist approach: instead of fighting, you scan creatures with a camera and learn their behaviors to distract or lure them. The slow, methodical pace divides opinion, with some comparing it to La-Mulana and others finding it too tedious. The game opens up significantly after obtaining the jetpack, but a few players report potential softlocks in the one-way teleporter areas.
