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 slow, atmospheric walk through a dark Japanese abandoned village, relying on darkness and sound to create a tense, eerie feel.

What players say

Players say Haisonmeguri is a very short walking simulator with an unnerving atmosphere, though some find it a graphical step back from the earlier Satogaeri. The horror relies on subtle scares and found-footage vibes, but a few reviewers note goofy jumpscares and a unsatisfying ending. The game is Japanese-only, but a fan translation patch is available.
