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.

A tense, stealthy escape from a nightmare-dimension school, blending eerie puzzles with psychological dread.

What players say

Players praise the creepy atmosphere and ghost variety but are divided by the clunky movement and tank controls, which some find intentional and others unplayable. Many note the game is made by one or two people and gets regular updates, while a few call it an amateur Unity kitbash with fake reviews.
