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 crawl through retro-styled corridors, mixing survival horror with claustrophobic exploration and sudden violence.

What players say

Players appreciate it as a love letter to 90s survival horror, especially Resident Evil and The Thing, but most agree it is extremely buggy with game breaking glitches, uneven controls, and a confusing map. Those who finish it call it charming and fun, others give up on unskippable puzzles or softlocks.
