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 dreamy survival game where the player navigates a frozen, surreal world filled with mystery and tension, with the constant threat of lag-induced disruption adding a layer of fragility.

What players say

Players praise the atmosphere and poetic dream concept, but many are frustrated by the lack of saves, high difficulty, and poor performance. The UI is widely called bare-bones and combat feels stiff, though the cold, lonely world is immersive.
