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.

What players say

Players praise the art style and tragic family story but are split on the experience due to clunky controls, slow item interactions, and frequent bugs that can break progression or achievements. The first two chapters rely heavily on jump scares, and the later ones shift to narrative. The game is short, around 5 to 8 hours, and many recommend it only at a steep discount.
