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

You navigate eerie, labyrinthine office spaces while completing mundane tasks and evading unknown threats, with tension mounting from both solitude and cooperative play.

What players say

Players mostly call it an asset flip with no updates for over a year. The main puzzles are basic math problems, the game has no settings or escape key, and it ends abruptly with a 'to be continued' after about 30 minutes. A few players find it okay but the overwhelming sentiment is negative.
