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

Explore a decrepit Thai guesthouse with deliberate point-and-click puzzles, eerie pixel art, and quick-time decision-making that balances tension with the need to outrun lurking horrors.

What players say

Players praise the atmospheric horror and Thai folklore setting, but point out a poor English translation and note that the game is only in Thai. Some find the sudden deaths and pixel-hunt puzzles frustrating, though saving anywhere helps. The jump scares are considered well-paced.
